Microsoft Ads runs the advertising on Bing, Yahoo and DuckDuckGo. Its share of UK search is small, which is exactly why it is worth having: far fewer advertisers are competing, so clicks routinely cost 30% to 50% less than the Google equivalent.

The audience skews older and more affluent, and a large share of it is at work — Bing is the default in Windows and on plenty of corporate machines nobody has reconfigured.

For B2B, professional services, healthcare and anything selling to an older demographic, that is a better audience than the raw market share suggests.

## What you get

### Imported from Google, then fixed

Importing saves setup time. Left as an import it underperforms, because the audience and competition are different. We import and then rework it.

### Bid strategy adjusted for the market

Less competition means different bidding. Copying Google bids across is leaving money on the table.

### Microsoft-specific targeting

LinkedIn profile targeting by industry, job function and company — genuinely useful for B2B and available nowhere else.

### Conversion tracking set up properly

Separate from Google Ads, and worth doing correctly rather than assuming the Google tag covers it, because it does not.

### Shopping campaigns for retail

Microsoft Shopping is meaningfully less competitive than Google Shopping and frequently returns better on the same feed.

### Reported alongside everything else

In the same dashboard as Google and Meta, so the comparison is like for like.

## Who this genuinely suits

- B2B, because of the LinkedIn targeting and the at-work audience
- Professional services — legal, financial, accountancy
- Healthcare and anything aimed at over-50s
- Retail with a clean product feed already built for Google
- Anyone finding Google Ads too expensive to make the numbers work

## Being realistic about volume

Bing’s UK share means the volume is a fraction of Google’s. For a local Mansfield service you might see a handful of clicks a day rather than dozens.

That is still worth having when those clicks cost half as much and convert at a similar rate. What it is not is a replacement for Google — it is a supplement that improves your blended cost per enquiry.

## What affects the price

Starting price: From £150/month (excluding VAT).

- Ad spend under management
- Whether campaigns are imported from Google or built fresh
- How many campaigns and ad groups
- Whether Shopping runs alongside search

## Local context — Mansfield

Almost no Mansfield business advertises on Microsoft. That means auction competition for local terms is close to nonexistent, and the cost per click reflects it.

For a business already running Google Ads, adding Microsoft is a couple of hours of work and typically lowers the overall cost per enquiry. It is one of the cheapest improvements available to an existing advertiser.

## Also known as

Bing Ads Mansfield, Microsoft Advertising Mansfield, Bing advertising management, Bing PPC Mansfield.

## Frequently asked questions

### Is it worth advertising on Bing?

If you are already running Google Ads profitably, almost always yes — the setup effort is small and the clicks are cheaper. As your only channel, rarely, because the volume is not there.

### How much cheaper are the clicks?

Typically 30% to 50% below Google for the same term, sometimes more on competitive commercial keywords where Google is expensive.

### Can I just copy my Google campaigns?

You can import them, and you should then adjust. Different competition, different audience, different bidding. An unadjusted import works but underperforms.
