Best answer: I think you read that wrong. AOL are switching to Bing's search tech. The Bing engine will be used to return search results across AOL's sites. Bing Rewards will not be impacted. I doubt you'll earn any credits for searches on those sites.

Response by poster: yes, but the ads are going to be by AOL. My question was on the basis that advertisement includes promotional stuff, all-around.

Display advertising is different from search advertising. The search ads and search results on Bing will still be provided by Microsoft, so I don't have any reason to expect they'll change their rewards program in the immediate future.
