Microsoft has announced a new round of advertising feature rollouts, including updates to match forms, ad formats, and product rollouts among other things. These announcements come after two rounds of major announcements in early and late April.

Phrase Match and Broad Match Modifiers have been modified.

Microsoft has announced that phrase match will begin to adopt the matching behaviors of the updated large match, following Google’s lead. This is a spoof of Google’s updates from February which are intended to make it easier for advertisers to handle campaigns on all platforms so match style disparities will no longer exist.

New Desktop Search Ad Format with Two Lines

In April, Microsoft started testing a new ad format in the United States with some advertisements delivering only the headline and URL. To put it another way, these advertisements will be delivered without any lines of explanation. When it comes to auction time, the SERP will use an algorithm to decide when to use this format. It is actually used on desktop only.

Customer match is Now Available 

Microsoft Ads announced on April 6 that a customer match will be available shortly.  Today is the big day! Except for the European Union, the United Kingdom and China, customer match is now widely available in all markets. The vertical of health and wellbeing is not sponsored. Both the Search Network and the Microsoft Audience Network enable advertisers to use customer matches.

Microsoft Ads and Dynamics 365 integration

Microsoft also revealed that Dynamics 365 and Microsoft Ads would be integrated. Advertisers who use Dynamics 365 consumer Insights will be able to import customer segments into Microsoft Ads. Advertisers who use Dynamics 365 will use this integration to align their efforts in Microsoft Ads with efforts in other platforms including Marketo, Mailchimp, and others. Smart Objectives Deployment

Advertisers who have installed the UET tag but have not yet activated conversion tracking will see “Smart Goals” appear in their account. Signals such as session length, pages per session, venue, and more are used by Microsoft to determine which sessions should be considered conversions.

Process for Conversion Setup has been updated.

Microsoft has devised a new method for assisting in the conversion process. To make the process more intuitive, the setup process will now ask marketers a series of questions.

DSA Campaigns to Mixed Campaigns Migration

Microsoft Ads revealed in November that DSA promotions would be converted to mixed campaigns. DSA campaigns will be converted to search campaigns and ad groups will be changed to the “dynamic” form. In May, the migration will begin.

Shopping Extensions and Campaigns are also available in new markets.

Microsoft revealed in 2020 that advertisers may use multi-image extensions and promotion extensions to increase interaction. Those were previously only available in the United States, but they are now available worldwide!
