Simple to Use Banner Advertising Suggestions

By Clare Chase


When Google AdWords came out, everybody thought that banner advertising would become a thing of the past. However, this did not occur. Instead banner ads started to dominate the web and are still reigning supreme. So if you decide to use the power of banner ads to get specific readers to your website, you do not have to think about it twice. In this article you will see 3 banner advertising tips that will help you to greatly upgrade your banner advertising campaign.

Keep your banner ad messages short and meaningful. You don't have a lot of space to write lots of content, which means your message should be delivered in a concise manner. Make sure you choose wisely so that you can get the most results from your headline in few words. Make your efforts equal to those of front page newspaper headlines. You have a few brief words to make your point clear to your audience. Also, make sure you're not using heavy jargon in your banner ads just to save space. Use simple words and keep it short.

Your banner ads must be simple in order to be successful. In other words, the viewer must not have an overwhelming feeling after looking at your ad, because that's going to drive him/her away. Your banner ad should be consistent in text, design, and everything. If you do multiple things in one ad and try to push it on the viewers, it'll only get them confused. Avoid distractions and stay focused or you risk derailing your banner ad. Try not to use a lot of colors in the ad and keep the font consistent throughout. The bottom line is that you need to make the process virtually painless for your target audience.

Finally, make sure your graphics are not only effective but also not overstated. Don't make them too gaudy or flashy because nowadays, the banner ads that really work are the ones that don't interrupt the viewer but are soothing. Make sure your banner is attractive and appealing rather than a turn off to your audience. These ads worked in the past but now the flashy ads only get negative attention. These same types of ads will not net the same results today. Your goal in banner ad design is an ad that is elegant and simple.

Banner advertising is highly successful for many marketers and can be for you also. The sheer effectiveness of banner advertising, when done properly, is the main reason it has been a mainstay so long. Apply these great tips to your banner ads to reach your goals and more.
