Streamlined access to MSN, Microsoft Outlook, Microsoft Casual Games, and Microsoft 365 across formats and markets

When you advertise on Microsoft you can reach over one billion people—including millions you’re not reaching anywhere else. Engage with consumers while they’re browsing, creating, tabulating, or playing on Microsoft apps and websites.

With the diverse content and tremendous consumer base of Microsoft, imagine the ways you can evolve your ad strategy forward. With Microsoft, you can now easily access display, native, or video ads on MSN, Microsoft Outlook, Microsoft Casual Games, and Microsoft 365 globally. Your potential reach is nearly limitless.

Unleash the power of Microsoft apps and websites

Microsoft has a diverse set of brands that consumers know and love—from a news site to work applications to online games—and can help you achieve your marketing goals whether it’s scale, performance, or engagement.

For example, when your consumer opens the MSN to be informed, productive, entertained, or inspired, you’ll have an ad tailored just for them. Whatever your consumer is doing—reading the latest sports news, researching restaurants nearby, checking the weather, or shopping—you can reach them right inside the MSN app or website with a seamless native ad among news stories or an impactful instream video ad. And that’s just one example of the many Microsoft apps and websites you can advertise on.

Connecting you to valuable consumers you care about

Today, for many in the workforce, the lines have blurred between “work hours” and time spent running errands, taking a yoga class, streaming video, researching products online, or shopping online or in-store.

In fact, 62% of people regularly do personal tasks such as research or make purchases during their worktime.1 This seismic shift in the way people do work and life is a powerful opportunity for you, and we can help you better connect with these consumers across digital channels.

With Microsoft you can reach a business owner crafting an email in Microsoft Outlook, a running shoes consumer scrolling a personalized newsfeed via MSN on Edge, a student using Excel in the Microsoft 365 Android mobile app, or a Solitaire superuser in Microsoft Casual Games. From a browser window, an app, a game, or ads in Outlook appear at the top of the message list—you now have access to one integrated solution to help you strategically grow your business.
