Howzit MSN Moves into Kenya and Nigeria with Localised Content
Howzit MSN is so big in South Africa clearly rivaling the likes of Yahoo, AOL and Google as well as Naspers’ News24. Microsoft is looking to deliver localised digital content to the African audience through the web and mobile. Microsoft will initially not produce original content for MSN Kenya portal but it will syndicate content from leading regional dailies.
The portal will feature dedicated sports, news, lifestyle and entertainment pages. MSN is also looking to engage with advertisers through the portal. It hopes to deliver targeted adverts through its portal as it is doing with the already popular Howzit MSN SA.
