Although they are good options, competition is very fierce for those starting.

Thinking about it, wouldn't it be nice to have a good alternative similar to Google Ads?

Know that it has been around for a long time in Brazil and is popularly known as Bing ads, but currently it has the name of Microsoft Advertising.

For those who still don't know, I'm going to make a brief presentation of this platform below.

The purpose of this article is to present the platform for those who do not know it, with its main features.

What is Microsoft Advertising (Bing ads)?

THE Microsoft Advertising is a pay-per-click (PPC) advertising platform generated on your ads, Bing search results and partners.

The Dashboard from where you will manage your campaigns is similar to Google Ads as you can see in the image below:

In general, you can learn to use the options in a few minutes if you already have experience in other similar platforms.

Although Google is the most used search engine on the planet, we can't rule out Bing, see just some numbers in Brazil:

  • 128 Million PC Searches Monthly
  • 10 million unique PC users
  • It has 10% of the PC search market
  • 62% of people search for products online and 46% use to discover new brands
  • Clicks can be 33.5% cheaper than on Google Ads (CPC).

In addition to the numbers above, we must remember that your ads will not only appear in Bing results, but also on Yahoo! and MSN.

As with Google Ads, after creating your account and leaving it idle for a few days it is very likely (not sure) who also receive an email with a code coupon for R$150.00 to create your first campaign.
