Microsoft posted and then retracted their announcement of renaming Microsoft Advertising to the Yahoo Bing Network. Part of that announcement is that Microsoft adCenter, the name of Microsoft’s search ad network, is now being renamed to Bing Ads.
You can see the retracted blog post on the new Yahoo Bing Network blog. It says, “Introducing the Yahoo! Bing Network” and talks about how “Bing Ads, the platform formerly known as adCenter” is the new name for adCenter.
The functionality and advertising network seems to be unchanged. Rather, this seems to be just a rebranding of the network.
You can follow the new brand at yahoobingnetwork.com. There is a Facebook page and a Twitter account. As you navigate to the old blog and advertiser login, you will see the new “Bing Ads” logo – also at bingads.com. I do find it interesting that Yahoo’s name comes before the Bing brand. It is fairly known that Microsoft runs the technology behind the ad network but Yahoo runs the people, support and sales behind the ad network.
Here is the blog post that was pulled down tonight from the Microsoft Advertising Blog, renamed the Bing Ads blog:
Today we are pleased to introduce you to the Yahoo! Bing Network, the new official name for our combined search marketplace. It reflects the commitment of both Microsoft and Yahoo! to bring you a broad, high-value, and engaged audience that helps grow your business.
