I cannot understand why my Cost Per Click is always around the ballpark of $3-$20 bid range. I have tried targeting various niches but no results.

I am still stuck at the ads manager desperately trying to find lower CPC suggested bids.

This is insane. :headbanger:

Does anyone have any suggestions? What may I be doing wrong?

Thank you.
