Bing Ads (Microsoft Ads) Management

We launch and run Microsoft Advertising as a second search channel after Google: an import that we check by hand, bids and targeting of its own, conversion tracking set up separately. Search ads reach Bing, Yahoo, DuckDuckGo and Copilot.

  • Google Ads import, checked by hand
  • Bing, Yahoo, DuckDuckGo, Copilot
  • The account stays yours

Microsoft Advertising - still widely called Bing Ads - shows your search ads on Bing, AOL, Yahoo, DuckDuckGo, Ecosia and partner sites, and in Copilot answers. In the US, Bing sent 9.78% of search-engine referrals in October 2026 and 18.8% on desktop (StatCounter), so for most businesses it is a second channel after Google, with an auction of its own. We import your Google Ads campaigns, fix what the import changes, track conversions separately and manage bids for Microsoft's audience.

In short

How Microsoft Advertising works

Six facts from Microsoft's documentation that shape how we set it up.

  1. One account, several search engines

    Search ads can show on Bing, AOL, Yahoo, DuckDuckGo, Ecosia and other partners; where exactly depends on the campaign, the ad type and distribution settings.

  2. Copilot is included

    All eligible campaigns are opted in to ads in Copilot answers automatically. There is no opt-out and no separate Copilot reporting.

  3. Search ads need a logo for Copilot

    Without a logo a search ad is not eligible to show in Copilot. Negative keywords apply there as they do in search.

  4. Import is a start, not a finish

    Bids and budgets that are too low are raised to Microsoft's minimums, broad match negatives become phrase match, video does not carry over and targeting works differently.

  5. Scheduled sync can undo your edits

    An automatic import can re-enable campaigns and restore Google Ads settings, including the budget, so we decide what syncs and what is managed natively.

  6. Partner sites are reported together

    Select partner traffic has no per-domain report, so we judge partner placements by conversions and cost per lead.

Who it's for

  • Google Ads already brings leads and you want more volume at a comparable cost

  • Your customers search at their desks: Bing gets close to one in five US desktop search referrals

  • B2B and professional services whose buyers research on work computers

  • Local services in competitive markets where Google clicks are expensive

  • E-commerce with Shopping or Performance Max campaigns in Google that can be imported

When Microsoft Ads is not the first step

  • Google Ads does not work yet: fix the main channel first - Microsoft's audience is smaller

  • A very small budget: fewer searches mean fewer clicks to learn from

  • Video-led campaigns: video from Google Ads video campaigns does not carry over in the import

  • Nobody answers the phone: as with any paid traffic, unanswered leads are wasted money

What's included

What's included in Bing Ads management

  • Import from Google Ads, checked

    We import the campaigns that already work in Google, then fix what the import changes: bids, negative keywords, targeting.

  • Bids and targeting of its own

    Microsoft's audience and auction differ from Google's, so bids, schedules and locations are set for it separately.

  • Conversion tracking

    A Microsoft tracking tag and conversion goals for calls, forms and chats, tested with a real lead before launch.

  • Ads with a logo and assets

    Sitelinks, callouts and a logo on search ads - without the logo they cannot show in Copilot.

  • Partner network control

    Distribution is set per ad group: Microsoft sites and select traffic, or the whole network - decided by the cost per lead.

  • Weekly search-term cleanup

    Search terms reviewed every week, negatives added in Microsoft's own match types.
