How Did This Creator Succeed on MSN?
The success of this technology creator has little to do with luck, it’s all strategy. Here’s why they saw great results:
1. Get Discovered With Ease
Getting discovered on YouTube requires work and consideration of YouTube algorithms. Since MSN is just gaining attention, it distributes your videos directly in high-traffic areas. These include Bing search results, the Windows News Widget, and Microsoft Edge’s homepage.
For our partner, this meant that instead of fighting for ranking on YouTube’s recommended feed, their content was placed in the middle of an eager audience looking for gadget reviews, software updates, and tech deep dives.
2. Less Competition, More Visibility
On YouTube, technology content is extremely saturated. But MSN’s creator ecosystem is still growing. This means early adopters enjoy premium placement with far less competition, leading to higher engagement and better monetization. It’s just like the early days of YouTube.
3. Monetization Since Day 1
Unlike other social media platforms, where monetization requires a minimum number of subscribers and watch hours, MSN allows creators to start earning from Day 1.
MSN’s audience also skews older and more professional—exactly the kind of demographic that attracts premium advertisers and results in higher CPMs.
4. Global Reach
MSN distributes content across multiple regions, automatically increasing the audience pool without requiring the creator to localize content.
How to Get Started on MSN
MSN is still in its early stages for creator content, which means lower competition, higher visibility, and huge earning potential. But MSN is an invite-only platform, meaning you need an official partner like AIR Media-Tech to help distribute your videos.
Here’s how it works:
- We review your channel – Not all content fits MSN’s ecosystem. We analyze everything to determine whether or not your channel is a right fit.
- We handle the entire submission process – No need to navigate Microsoft’s approval system. We do it for you so you can focus on creating content.
- You start earning immediately – Once approved, monetization starts from Day 1.
If your content falls under technology, gaming, sports, fitness, or travel, you could be a perfect fit for MSN’s growing ecosystem.
Our technology creator wasn’t looking to leave YouTube. They were looking to expand—and they found success. With an extra $1,500 in revenue from content they had already created, the real question is:
