It is a fact that a higher bid of 30-40 cents will get you a better position than a 10-15 cent one. Clearly a better position will get you more viewers, especially when you realize that the majority of searchers will not look beyond 3-5 pages in a search result. However you should bear in mind that it is pretty useless paying for a higher position if you are not getting sales from your ad. It will definitely be a waste of money.
When you start your campaign and choose your keywords, detailed management of your campaign is very important. This means checking how each ad and keyword performs.

If your ad is not pulling in sales then you will need to make some changes, or just take it off.
