Search Term Prioritization
An account might produce more relevant search terms than the allowed limit. When this happens, Whole Market View prioritizes the terms in the following order:
- Brand Activator terms.
- Hourly terms ranked by volume.
- Priority terms ranked by volume.
- User managed search term groups ranked by volume.
- Brand terms ranked by volume.
- All other search terms ordered by volume (deemed relevant by AI).
Navigate to Search Term Settings
To access Search Term Settings, click the Settings () icon located in the top-right corner of your Adthena account, then select Search Term Settings from the dropdown menu.
Hourly Terms
Hourly Terms allow you to specify which brand and generic search terms are monitored hourly in the Time-of-Day Analysis and protected by Infringement Rules. Once added, these terms are indexed hourly and treated as relevant to your market, ensuring they consistently appear in your reports. Because Hourly Terms power Infringement Rules, you'll need to select which terms to monitor before creating your first rule.
Edit Hourly Terms
All search terms list all available search terms in your account, whilst Search terms included shows you which search terms are already included in your group. You can also view how many hourly terms are included in your contract and how close you are to your limit. To increase your hourly term allowance, contact your Account Manager. You can download the list of terms as a CSV file by clicking CSV Export in the top-right corner of the table.
- Click on Edit to the right of the Hourly Terms row.
- Click on Remove or Remove All to remove search terms. Please note that if all hourly terms within an infringement rule are removed, the rule will be automatically deleted.
- You can choose to filter by the specific search term in the search box.
- For bulk additions, you can upload a CSV file. Please ensure your file:
- Is in UTF-8 format
- Contains a single column with one search term per row
- Exclude headers
✅ Correct format examples:

Priority Terms
Priority Terms are search terms considered important to your marketing campaign. Adding them to the Priority Terms group ensures Adthena treats them as relevant to your market, keeping them visible in your reports. Adding terms to Priority overrides their Not in Market status, marking them as Accepted in your Whole Market View, even if Adthena deems them irrelevant. Please allow 2–5 days for data to appear after adding a term to the Priority Terms group.
NOTE: If a term is already in the Hourly Terms group, there's no need to add it to Priority Terms, as both groups ensure the term remains active in your account.
Edit Priority Terms
All search terms list all available search terms in your account, whilst Search terms included shows you which search terms are already included in your group. You can also view how many priority terms are included in your group at the top of the table. You can download the list of terms as a CSV file by clicking CSV Export in the top-right corner of the table.
- Click on Edit to the right of the Priority Terms row.
- Click on Remove or Remove All to remove search terms.

Bing Infringement Terms
Bing Infringement Terms are required to create Bing Infringement Rules. Before setting up your first rule, you'll need to add the relevant Bing search terms to this group. Keep in mind that if all terms are removed from a rule, the rule will be deleted automatically.
