Well today I am going to give you some tips for how to design a perfect banner ad.
1. The Design: Always design a simple ad; do not try to ad flash effects or changing images in an ad, because readers don’t like flashing and shiny ads. So go for a creative design which reflects your business.
2. The Magic of Words: Do not stuff you banner with words. Try to use 5-8 words and use large font. Readers do not have time to read stuff written on a banner. Attract them with a few words but an incomplete sentence leaving a mystery and they will click on your banner to find out the mystery.
3. The Size: Always try to keep the size low for your ad. It should load quickly. Don’t not use heavy images or effects in it. 50-90kb is an acceptable size for a banner.
