The Dwindling Magic of Banner Ads
Banner ads are logos or headlines seen in webpages that directs
consumers to products or services. Simply clicking a banner
magically brings you to the company's storefront and shopping
for products and services becomes a breeze.
Many companies are able to make good money by using this form of
advertisement for their products and services.
Even small businesses benefit from this modern advertising
method with less expense than that of conventional advertisement
in print and media. It is also easier design this advertisement
than producing conventional advertisements.
You will notice that the internet is swamp with so many
advertisements in form of banner ads, some are small and some
are big.
Thus, you can attribute the popularity of online shopping to
this modern method of advertising. Selling products and offering
services to internet browsers appear on a 24/7 basis. Your
product and services appear in front of possible customers' day
in and day out.
Banner ads are available in different shapes and sizes.
Different formats such as static and animated formats add more
power to the advertisement.
The traditional format or the static format is less popular than
the entertaining animated format. Animated format advertisement
arouse the curiosity of internet browsers and shoppers, thus it
receives more clicks than its static counterpart does.
Your advertisement can be successful if you can post them in
websites related to your product or service.
You may also be successful if your banner ad will be posted on
top of the page than below where not much browsers or shoppers
continue to read far down below.
It is also an effective way to post your advertisement that
conveys simple messages than complicated one, which causes
consumer confusion. Although, I may need to stress that in order
to induce more clicks, a good doze of creativity needs to show
in your advertisement.
Professional banner ad designers may be helpful if you want to
be effective in advertising through this
medium.
Although, there are computer softwares that can help you create
and design your own advertisement, professional ones can be more
useful and less time consuming, price maybe an issue but if you
can shop around before engaging professional designers, you may
be able to find a reasonably priced and experienced ad designer.
The sad story is that recent studies show that the effectivity
of banner ads to bring in the bacon is now dwindling in lieu of
pop-up ads, smaller browser window and advertisements that
appear on their own.
Thus, you need to apply much creativity and arouse curiosity for
the consumer to checkout your webpage. Make your advertisement
stand out and avoid the shrinking attention banner ads are
getting in the cyberspace.
However, contrary to this experts believe that advertisements
evolve in various different forms, banner ads may still be
around for a long time. Creativity may be a key and a lot of
patience, no overnight success in advertising your products and
services, so you need a lot of this in combination - patience
and creativity.
Additionally, because you are competing in a marketplace where
the benefit of touch is not extended to your prospective
customer, you need to be able to convey the message to the
customers through your advertisement, this is what your banner
ad needs to convey.
Research on the best way to market your product or service and
post them in sites where they will receive enough attention,
this is the only way to ensure you will benefit from this modern
advertising method.
In addition, once you capture the attention of a prospective
consumer, your website needs to keep them glued by creative
showcase of products and information necessary to bring in the
sales.
Banner ads can only do so much, you need to keep consumers
interested.
