Bing Ads Management on Microsoft Advertising

Reach millions of Bing, Microsoft Edge, Copilot and partner-network searchers — often at lower cost per click than Google.

Our Bing ads management service helps you reach searchers on the Microsoft Advertising network, which powers ads on Bing, Microsoft Edge, Copilot experiences, MSN and partner search engines.

Microsoft's audience skews older, more affluent and more professional than average, and competition is usually lower than on Google. For many advertisers, that combination produces cheaper clicks and strong conversion rates.

Many businesses simply import their Google campaigns and forget about them. We optimize Microsoft Advertising as a channel in its own right, using its unique targeting options and audience data.

Is Bing ads management worth it?

Bing ads management is worth it for many businesses because Microsoft Advertising often delivers lower cost per click, less competition and an audience with above-average household income. It complements Google Ads by reaching searchers on Bing, Edge, Copilot and partner sites, typically adding incremental conversions at an efficient cost.

Sample data — replace before launch

Cutting cost per signed case by 41% for a personal injury firm

Client
Personal injury law firm
Challenge
The firm spent heavily on Google Ads but measured success by leads. Roughly two-thirds of those leads were unqualified — wrong practice area, wrong state or existing clients — so the algorithm was learning to find more of the wrong people.
Result
Connected call tracking to the firm's intake system so Google Ads could optimize for signed cases instead of form fills.

Who searches on Microsoft's network?

Bing is the default search engine on Windows devices and the Microsoft Edge browser, and it powers search experiences inside Microsoft products. Many professionals search on work computers where Bing is the default, which makes Microsoft Advertising particularly valuable for B2B and high-consideration purchases.

Microsoft also offers LinkedIn profile targeting, letting you adjust bids based on a searcher's company, industry or job function — a powerful option you won't find on Google.

Ads in AI-powered search experiences

Microsoft has integrated ads into Copilot and other AI-assisted search experiences. As more people search conversationally, being present in these placements helps brands reach buyers at the moment they ask for recommendations.

We monitor how these placements perform within your campaigns and adjust strategy as Microsoft's ad formats evolve.

Ask us anything

Is Microsoft Advertising the same as Bing Ads?

Yes. Bing Ads was rebranded as Microsoft Advertising. It serves ads on Bing, Microsoft Edge, Copilot experiences, MSN and partner sites.

Can I just import my Google Ads campaigns?

Importing is a good starting point, but performance improves when you adjust bids, budgets, targeting and creative for Microsoft's audience and auction dynamics.

How much traffic can Microsoft Ads deliver?

Volume is lower than Google — often a fraction of it — but costs are usually lower too, so it can add efficient incremental conversions.

Is Microsoft Ads good for B2B?

Yes. Its professional audience and LinkedIn profile targeting make it especially effective for B2B lead generation.

Do you manage Microsoft Shopping campaigns?

Yes. We connect Microsoft Merchant Center, import or optimize feeds and manage Shopping and Performance Max campaigns on Microsoft.
