 Suggested Techniques For Effective Banner Ads

Professionally created banners work best.
To avoid delay and to increase response rates:

  1. Create your banner ad to the exact dimension noted for that type. Images adapted for the size may not appear crisp if the image is not recreated and are only resized. Clear graphics work best.

  2. Minimize words on the ad. Make it simple and to the point.

  3. Use upper and lower case text since it is the easiest to read and does not seem like someone is SCREAMING, AS ALL CAPITALS DO.

  4. Immediately draw attention by stating an obvious benefit, such as "Win $100,000 instantly1x"

  5. Make sure you write "click here" in some manner on the graphic.

  6. The design should have a button or some form of image that looks like it is supposed to be "clicked."

  7. The file size needs to be small so use pure, not blended, colors in the design.

  8. If your URL is easy to remember it should also appear on the banner, such as "www.a1.com" This will build awareness allowing additional visits at a later point.

  9. Animation, done tastefully helps. Avoid excessive "flashing" since flashing can be annoying if it is overdone.

  10. Be clear on the "Call To Action," such as "Join Now." Do create a sense of urgency, "Join Now and You May Win $100,000."

  11. Colors should be bright. Overly contrasting colors such as red and black are normally less effective than bright colors such as orange, yellow, blue and green.
