Microsoft adCenter Overview


Search. Click. Find.  

Simply put, that's what you want your customers to do. There were some 1.4 billion search queries in Canada alone this past April.1 With Microsoft pay-per-click search advertising, you can connect directly to the queries that relate to your business. Create your Microsoft adCenter account by defining your target market, creating an ad, selecting some keywords and setting an ad budget. When searchers see your ads, click to your site, and take the desired action you want – be it buying something or filling out a form, you get a good return on your investment.

 

Why Search?

Some 78% of Canadians online use search engines to learn about a product or service, and 50% of their online queries are related to that research.2 In Canada, search advertising has experienced an impressive 79% growth in spending between 2005 and 2006.3
