		<description>Hi Search Love,

Thanks for your comments.  Daily caps were set on syndication, however that does not stop two partners from underperforming from a conversion rate standpoint.  Spending limits only help with delivery not conversion, and when a large % of that daily cap are spent on two poor partners you need to pull those partners from syndication to ensure the daily budget allocation is distributed to better performers.  This method will allow you to keep your daily spend at the same level so your exposure is not affected, and increase performance.</description>

		<description>Some good tips.  If you were using a bid automated solution you could have put a limit and not over spent with the syndicates.</description>
