Increase productivity with the new Microsoft Advertising Editor

Whether you’re managing your ads through an API, editor, online, or third-party, we’ve made it even easier.

We recently integrated Microsoft Advertising Editor into the Microsoft Audience Network, our native advertising solution. Previously, you could only manage your campaigns in the Microsoft Audience Network interface or in an API. Now you can manage your audience campaigns with Microsoft Advertising Editor. This extends the tool many people love and use daily onto another popular platform.

This integration is part of our commitment to bring advertisers new features to help them spend less time setting up and managing campaigns and more time engaging with customers. This latest addition is one of many for the Microsoft Audience Network that helps you save time and increase productivity.

Success with Microsoft Advertising Editor

With Microsoft Advertising Editor, you can manage your search, shopping, and audience campaigns from the same place, helping you optimize and be more productive. It allows you to manage your audience campaign settings, bids, audience associations, and ad management activities, saving you time and streamlining your campaigns.

Capabilities for managing audience ad campaigns within Microsoft Advertising Editor include:

• Bulk management of campaign settings, bids and modifiers, targeting, audience associations, and ad management (except images).
• Importing display campaigns from Google.
• Management of existing audience ads (without images).
• Full campaign structure copying within an account (ads, targeting, associations).
• Cross-account copying of the full structure except ads.

Upcoming Audience Network capabilities we’re looking to add into Microsoft Advertising Editor soon include creating new ads, seeing a full ad preview, creating feed-based campaigns, uploading images, and using stock photos.

You can see that the addition of Microsoft Advertising Editor to the Microsoft Audience Network is just one of the many ways we’re enabling you with options to work how you want to work while saving time and improving efficiency.

Here are other new Microsoft Audience Network updates:
