Effective & In-effective Ways To Add Banners:

By: Martin Lemieux

Do you have your own site? Do you have any banners on

your site?

Banners are everywhere, the internet is full of them

all over the place. So the question is, how do you ad

a banner that receives a lot of clicks?

- By not placing it with 20 other banners

- By adding your banner everywhere you can

- By adding more content!

The last one is the key. Anyone can just simply add

a banner and hope that it generates revenue but if you

add content to with your banner. You'll be giving your

visitors a benefit by clicking on the banner. Doing

this will bring you better results.

For example:

Here's an imaginary banner for X services.

This is what it should look like!

------------------------------------------------------

X Services: Never leave home without it!

Were happy to bring you this wonderful resource

because it was an instrumental reason for our success!

X Services helped us to manage our content more

swiftly and with ease. Our production time was cut in

1/2 and we saved a lot of money on labor.

You won't be disappointed and learning more won't cost

you a penny!!!

| X Services - Click Me For More Information |

Now if you follow that example, you'll notice I listed

all the benefits as to why someone would want to click

on that banner. I DID NOT list the features. People

don't relate to features they act on impulse and

emotions.

What I recommend is try out a few examples like the

one I just showed you. Ask your friends which examples

are better and which made them think about clicking on

the banner.

I myself don't take part in banners on my site all

that often. I find it takes away from my design and

what I'm trying to accomplish.

What I will take part in is smaller, easier to use

banners that don't take up the whole width of the

page. This allows me to compliment the banner with

text right beside it.

Here's an example of what I mean:
