Microsoft Advertising
Bing Advertising Singapore: Microsoft Ads
Bing is a small search engine in Singapore next to Google, and we would rather say that up front. For most local businesses, Google should carry the search budget. Microsoft Advertising earns a place when your buyers are other businesses, search from office desktops, and are worth enough that a handful of extra enquiries covers the cost of a test. Then we add it to your Google plan as a small, separate campaign with its own tracking, and stop it if it does not pay. The checklist below tells you quickly whether it is worth trying.
When Microsoft Ads is worth testing in Singapore
-
You sell to businesses, not mainly to households in Singapore.
-
Your buyers search during office hours on work computers in Singapore.
-
One new client is worth enough to pay for a small monthly test in Singapore.
Highlights
When Microsoft Ads is worth testing in Singapore
If most of these describe you, a test makes sense. If only one or two do, keep the budget on Google for now in Singapore.
-
You sell to businesses, not mainly to households in Singapore.
-
Your buyers search during office hours on work computers in Singapore.
-
One new client is worth enough to pay for a small monthly test in Singapore.
-
Google Ads already brings in enquiries, and you can count them in Singapore.
-
Your main Google keywords keep getting dearer and you want reach on the same terms elsewhere in Singapore.
Process
One search plan for Google and Microsoft
Bing is added to your Google plan, not run as a separate project in Singapore.
- Week 1
Step 1
Start with Google
We check your Google Ads account and tracking first. If Google is not bringing in enquiries at a cost you can accept, we fix that before spending on Bing in Singapore.
- Weeks 1 to 2
Step 2
Move only what works
Search terms with a record of enquiries go to Microsoft Ads. Everything else stays on Google until it proves itself in Singapore.
- Weeks 2 to 8
Step 3
Run a capped test
Bing gets a small, fixed budget, office-hours scheduling and its own UET tracking, with the same enquiry goals as Google in Singapore.
- Monthly
Step 4
Review both together
Each month you see cost per enquiry for both channels in one report. If Bing does not hold its own, the budget goes back to Google in Singapore.
