By offering ”cashback” incentives to the consumers and a shift in the advertising model the tech giant is hoping to become the major search engine at least among the online shoppers. With this move, it is questionable whether Microsoft aims to get larger search engine marketing share (now it is third in U.S with fewer than 9.1% of the total pie) or it strives to increase its search revenue. The new program mainly applies to e-commerce related searches, which represent one of the most lucrative parts of the advertising market and generate 80% of the overall search revenue.

As IT departments usually have lots of problems to worry about, staff tend to "turn on" the search baked into the content management system and move on with their lives. Times have changed.
