Min bid to appear on first page bid = $0.01

[abbottsys]

A few people have asked about a post I did last year where I achieved a QS=10

The campaign is still alive and well. The keyword still has QS=10 and the "min bid to appear on the first page" is still $0.01

I have no complaints

I find this whole Min bid to be on first page a bit of a sham.

I first should say, I certainly like that google doesn't simple deactivate your keyword ala Yahoo, but instead gives you a little heads up.

However;

I have a number of KW's that have a notification stating I have to raise my bid to something ridiculous like $24 from $2 to be on the first page, yet my average position is 2.1!!!!

If this suggestion tool is so far off, Why use it? How can one rely on it? What gives?
