If you are talking about three premium spots on MSN.com, it is handled by MSN itself. If there are not enough MSN ads, Overture will fill the slots. they accept only limited big merchants today because there system is kind of MANUAL (not automatic). They may change it this summer to have more automated bidding system. Currently, you have to make a contract at fixed CPC for a YEAR.

They have specific offices throughout the US. I am in NC and my MSN office and rep is in NYC. Most of the previously required annual contracts have been rewritten to expire on June 30, 2005 to coincide with their contract with O. Just lends more credence to their own ppc on the way.

Yes - everyone is right of course, but MOST likely you just want to go to Overture. Sponsored results are theirs. Msn's are called "featured" although in the UK at least the account managers and the listings seem to have gone awol...
