Bing Blocks

Microsoft Advertising is testing displaying larger images in the Bing sponsored results. These images are full block size images that take up a lot of space in the search results.

We've seen Microsoft Bing test large images on some ads before - but this version is on mobile search.

This was spotted by Sachin Patel who posted these on X and on SEW - here is one example:

For comparison purposes, this is the version I see with the image:

Bing Ad Normal Image

Bing also can show this ad without any images.

Which are you more likely to click on?
