Microsoft Adwords

Advertisers will be able to buy keywords on MSN’s search page soon with the launch of MSN adCenter.

The service will be unveiled later today by Yusuf Mehdi, VP of MSN Information Services and Merchant Platform division, at MSN’s customer summit in Redmond.

The service is likely to be similar to that offered by Google and Yahoo! – advertisers pay so their adverts appear when a surfer searches for a particular word. MS claims the system will include detailed audience information such as location, gender, age group and lifestyle segment. MS believes this will allow advertisers to improve advertising strategy and improve click-through rates.

The service will be trialled in France and Singapore for six months before any wider rollout.
