    Microsoft Ads Agency

    In 2022, Microsoft Search Network captured 24.3% of the UK desktop market with 27 million unique PC users. In the US, it held a 38.1% share, reaching 120 million users. Even better? Microsoft’s audience spends 32% more online than the average searcher. Talk about getting more for your money!

    Maximizing Reach with Microsoft Ads

    Many believe that Microsoft/Bing Ads aren’t worth it due to lower search volume, but that’s just a myth.

So, don’t sleep on Bing – there’s plenty of potential to reach your audience and boost your brand.
