On March 6th AdCenter will hold an "open enrollment" for people wishing to participate in the AdCenter pilot. You'll be able to sign up and get instant access to your account - no waiting for an e-mail invitation. Details here: Join AdCenter - No Wait.
Heads up! Thanks you for sharing this.. For those who are wondering 9 AM PST.. (same as I) http://www.timeanddate.com/library/abbreviations/timezones/na/pst.html
This for advertisers wishing to serve ads right? Apparently they already have a live signup form? https://advertising.msn.com/msn-adcenter/signup Also would be nice if you'd quoted the source of this information.....
Yes, the signup from has been live since last year. When you sign up though you'll be put on a list and sent an e-mail at some later date that will allow you to open your account. If you signup on the 6th during that 3 hour window you won't have to wait for an invite e-mail. AdCenter is for advertisers - i.e. it's the AdWords competitor. The source is the AdCenter team via e-mail. It hasn't been posted anywhere else that I am aware of. The official post will be made on the AdCenter blog tomorrow.
Consider it done! I'm surprised there isn't more talk about this. I've been playing around with adCenter for a few hours now and I'm liking it so far. It puts the Overture interface to shame, that's for sure.
Slooow approval of keywords. Bulk upload system is buggy and clumsy. Otherwise, the interface is great. Can't report on traffic as none of my keywords have been approved yet
Right. Adcenter does seem quite cool for an MS product. I am mildly impressed. I started testing it in January.
I tried to signup today but was told that it is not available yet to the public ... does anybody know a thing about this???
