We recently co-hosted a webinar with Microsoft Ads to help advertisers make their first successful moves on Microsoft Ads. The webinar focused on how to utilize the recent changes in Microsoft Ads for quick wins and better results &#8211; generating cheaper, better traffic with minimal investment of time and ongoing effort.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In this article, we\u2019ll cover 3 main topics:<\/span><\/p><p><strong>1. Four points for rapid growth<\/strong><\/p><p><strong>2. Rising opportunities in times of uncertainty<\/strong><\/p><p><strong>3.

Four points for rapid growth<\/b><\/h2><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There\u2019s a new MCC account (manager account) structure &#8211; a similar look to Google &#8211;\u00a0 that allows easy navigation between accounts and clients. The management dashboard also provides better control in audiences, extensions, experiments, and much more.\u00a0<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Good news! Importing and scheduling updates of campaigns from Google into Microsoft Ads became much easier. This cuts down the time and effort of creating and optimizing new campaigns and simplifies it to a couple of clicks. Expanding ad activity has never been easier.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Create a DSA (Dynamic Search Ads) campaign &#8211; this campaign type uses content from the landing pages of your website to target your ads to searchers. The ads are automatically created, and all that\u2019s left is to set bid management and <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">optimize search terms from time to time. This works really well, especially in industries with high competition levels such as Travel, Finance, or home services.<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unique targeting options: Outshine competitors and generate higher value for clients or in-house marketing by using Microsoft\u2019s qualitative edge &#8211; the advantage that Microsoft has over other platforms:<\/span><\/li><\/ul><h3><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1. LinkedIn profile targeting:<\/span><\/span><\/h3><p>This can help target and adjust bids more precisely to the right audience, helping you to reach your goals. This works great for eCommerce, lead gen, and B2B campaigns. Outside of LinkedIn itself, Microsoft Advertising is the only digital advertising platform to offer LinkedIn Profile Targeting. That means you can get Linkedin accurate targeting options with Microsoft\u2019s broad reach &#8211; so it\u2019s broader and cheaper than Linkedin AND has better targeting options. This is a must-have for B2B businesses, business services, luxury brands, travel, apparel, and more.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-eb68525 elementor-widget elementor-widget-template\" data-id=\"eb68525\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"template.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-template\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div data-elementor-type=\"section\" data-elementor-id=\"29329\" class=\"elementor elementor-29329\" data-elementor-post-type=\"elementor_library\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-486a9019 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"486a9019\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-6ed64254\" data-id=\"6ed64254\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-281ae6ce elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"281ae6ce\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<style>\/*! elementor - v3.22.0 - 24-06-2024 *\/\n.elementor-widget-image{text-align:center}.elementor-widget-image a{display:inline-block}.elementor-widget-image a img[src$=\".svg\"]{width:48px}.elementor-widget-image img{vertical-align:middle;display:inline-block}<\/style>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"20\" height=\"14\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adcore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Group-10466.svg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-28055\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4dc8e19 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"4dc8e19\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<style>\/*! elementor - v3.22.0 - 24-06-2024 *\/\n.elementor-heading-title{padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title[class*=elementor-size-]>a{color:inherit;font-size:inherit;line-height:inherit}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title.elementor-size-small{font-size:15px}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title.elementor-size-medium{font-size:19px}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title.elementor-size-large{font-size:29px}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title.elementor-size-xl{font-size:39px}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title.elementor-size-xxl{font-size:59px}<\/style><p class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">If you haven\u2019t worked with Microsoft Ads yet or have tried it while it was still called Bing Ads, this is for you.

Rising opportunities in times of uncertainty<\/h2><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some of our clients have experienced drastic jumps in activity while others <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">had to close or narrow their activity.

We must adapt our business, workflows, tools, and our work methods to seize the opportunities.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Consumers made the move from offline to online &#8211; a trend that was definitely accelerated by Covid-19. Compared to 2019, there\u2019s a significant uplift in traffic and search volume online. Retail and eCommerce in general have made a major step forward. Businesses that had some online activity in the past have shifted their focus to online, small brick and mortar shops were pushed to sell and serve online in order to survive, and the online industry, in general, had huge growth. More businesses now sell online and users that had never made an online purchase have changed their behavior. This results in an increased need for digital marketing.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to several economic analyses, in the next 6 &#8211; 12 months, growing businesses will continue to grow and declining businesses will continue to fall &#8211; what\u2019s also known as the K movement. Therefore, digital marketers should shift towards the industries that benefit from the situation:<\/span><\/p><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Home office and decor<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Domestic travel over international travel<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">E-learning and home education<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Health and fitness, mostly home and online-based services.<\/span><\/li><\/ul><h2><b>3. Roadmap to success:<\/b><\/h2><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Microsoft is highly focused on personalization &#8211; which leads to better marketing performance for advertisers. The wide reach of the Microsoft search network is via products, devices, platforms, and, above all, partnerships. As consumers move their interactions and searches beyond the browser and throughout the day, the search network will meet them where they are. The traffic is of high quality from brands such as Yahoo, AOL, Gumtree, and a diverse set of partners like DuckDuckGo and Ecosia.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">User interaction and engagement with Microsoft properties are ingested into the Microsoft Graph. The graph gives a rich user understanding of who people are, their interests, and their dislikes, allowing Microsoft Ads to match your ads with the right user at the right time.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Using the search and audience networks combined can have a huge impact on your search campaign performance.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In an initial study evaluating campaigns from multiple advertisers over a 3-month period, Microsoft Audience Network advertisers saw an increased performance in their search campaign with a +43% lift in searches post-exposure (post impression or post-click) and a 2.3% lift in CTR (click-through rates). <\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These lift metrics are measured by evaluating the impressions per user and searches per user for those who were exposed compared to a group of similar users who were not exposed to those brands\u2019 Microsoft Audience Network ads. The lift is not a total lift on the entire search program, but rather on a per-user basis for the users who were exposed. A larger exposed user base on the Microsoft Audience Network would lead to a larger increase in total searches.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To conclude: Microsoft Ads has a giant potential for all industries to leverage their broad audience and varied placements to get an unmatched return on ad spend (ROAS). Their platform makes it super quick and simple to import from Google Ads and get started &#8211; so why not give it a try?<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-55f73e13 MicroFont elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"55f73e13\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><b>Need to consult about your digital advertising strategy? <\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.adcore.com\/adcore-elite-digital-marketing-agency\/?utm_source=google&amp;utm_medium=cpc&amp;utm_campaign=Adcore+Brand&amp;utm_term=adcore%20marketing&amp;utm_campaign=Adcore+Brand+%7C+Search&amp;utm_source=adwords&amp;utm_medium=ppc&amp;hsa_acc=6161721672&amp;hsa_cam=19399326401&amp;hsa_grp=145664894878&amp;hsa_ad=642973568285&amp;hsa_src=g&amp;hsa_tgt=kwd-1931952573776&amp;hsa_kw=adcore%20marketing&amp;hsa_mt=p&amp;hsa_net=adwords&amp;hsa_ver=3&amp;gad_source=1&amp;gclid=Cj0KCQiAvvO7BhC-ARIsAGFyToUI8NzNH9AUND8OYHG_Ygh4BTutXUA_VSCd6I-1xSEE7eyXFrM9PqAaAnGZEALw_wcB\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><b>Talk to our experts<\/b><\/a><b> (it\u2019s free)!<\/b><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you haven\u2019t worked with Microsoft Ads yet or have tried it while it was still called Bing Ads, this is for you.
