Bing is testing large images for ads appearing at the top of its search results page. I spotted this yesterday.<\/p>\n

Last year, Bing tested something similar within Copilot ads, but this test looks different it shows larger images specifically for sponsored ads sitting at the very top of the page.<\/p>\n

Here is the screenshot of how it looks.<\/p>\n

Bing has been testing more variations of its ad formats this year, so this fits into that broader pattern.<\/p>\n

Personally, I don\u2019t like this ad format showing a large image at the top it doesn\u2019t feel like a good fit for the page.<\/p>\n
