Yahoo! and Microsoft Search Alliance introduced to clients

Yahoo! and Microsoft today contacted all of their search marketing clients, informing them that the Yahoo! & Microsoft Search Alliance has received regulatory clearance from regulators in the United States and the European Union. Further, the messages laid out the road map as far as advertising clients are concerned. The plan is to combine the Yahoo! and Microsoft search advertising business under Microsoft’s adCenter in 2010 before the holiday season for the US market.

Interestingly, the Yahoo email mentions that this might be delayed until early 2011, “if we determine this will be more effective.” The Microsoft email doesn’t mention that part, maybe because Microsoft’s engineers have more confidence in their abilities than Yahoo!’s.

The Yahoo! & Microsoft Search Alliance will come to clients and partners outside the US in early 2011 (provided it all goes well).
