Priceline Hotel: How often should I bid?

I want to get a 4* hotel in downtown San Antonio for the night of July, 19. I'm bidding early because my plans are firm and I have concerns about how my bidding will go if I wait until the week of check-in because there is a convention in town that same weekend. (the Hyatt is already sold out). I bid today starting at $55 and stopped at $95 with no success. I'm wondering if I should try every day or bid every week or two. I'm new to Priceline so I'm not sure how variable successful bids can be. Thanks for the help.

Yes, $95 is as high as I want to bid. I've read of many others getting hotels for that or less and I have 7 months to do it in. I used South, North East, Medical Center and East as my rebid zones. Also, I'm not sure if this is relevant, but Hotwire does not have an offer for a 4* hotel in the downtown/riverwalk area for the date I need. I'm not sure what that means, if anything.
