People connect at Windows Live
Reach your customers at their decision point with Windows Live™. As your audience connects with the people they care about and have the conversations that matter, your brand will be right there, too – and brands at the point of influence have the best chance of being chosen.

Expand your reach and influence
Once a customer opens the Windows Live homepage, it becomes the center for all their Hotmail® and Messenger® connections. Unlike other social network sites, where users can enter the site from multiple entry points, Windows Live users enter through one point. Our entire audience can see your ad.

The Windows Live homepage helps users find their friends, reach their family, and get more done. Your ad is right there as they go about their day, making connections and the decisions that follow.


Why Windows Live?
Advertisers reach more than 94 million unique users in Asia Pacific1 with Windows Live, users who are talking about passions, setting priorities, and deciding where and when to spend money. More than two-thirds discuss social arrangements and weekend planning in Messenger, while 80 percent are likely to discuss special days and holiday plans.2

And because Windows Live lets busy people enter Hotmail once, they stay there and focus on what they care about most. With Full View, users can unite many of their social networks, including Facebook, in one active IM window – along with innovative ad units in a variety of eye-catching formats. They have more reason to stay online, and you have a great way to engage a captive audience as they plan, make decisions, and get things done.

Hotmail and Messenger make Windows Live a one-stop connection shop. Join the point of influence at Windows Live.
