Online Banner Advertising Remains Popular
A few years ago there seemed to be a bit of a backlash against the over-abundant use of online banner advertising. Ad banners were everywhere and were becoming quite annoying. In some circles, Internet Marketers were being advised to reduce their use of banner ads.
I’m not certain what happened – perhaps marketers did tone down the intrusiveness of their ads – but you don’t hear people complaining quite as much now, and the use of banner ads remains popular among online businesses.
I would think that if you use banners moderately and position them sparingly on the web page, you should be fine. Try to balance your page with a comfortable mix of quality content that is informative and helpful, and well-placed banners that relate to the topic of the content and that do not overwhelm the article. In other words, you want more content on a page than ad banners.
Also, keeping with recent search engine updates, you are well advised to place your quality content higher on the page and your ads lower.
In addition to placing ads on their own websites, some marketers like to do some online banner advertising on other sites. They might pay for these ads or do banner exchanges with other website owners.
In many cases, marketers use banner ads provided by the company or source of the products and services the marketer is promoting. When these prepared ads are available, that makes it very easy for the marketer.
However, there are times when a suitable prepared ad is not available, or when a marketer needs a banner for their own product, service or purpose. The marketer must then outsource, or hire someone to create the banner ad for them.
As an alternative, they can choose to create their own ads using any of a variety of easy banner creator software solutions that are readily available. Some resources will provide a more professional looking result than others.
When you design your own banner, it is advisable to plan ahead. Determine where it is going to be positioned so you can create it in an appropriate size and shape. This holds true whether you are making it for your website, or for another site.
Common banner sizes are 125 x 125, 468 x 60, 234 x 60, 200 x 200, 250 x 250 and 120 x 600, although a variety of other sizes are used, depending on the website, the column sizes and the space available.
Online banner advertising is still an effective way to promote your products and your Internet Marketing business. If your banners are attractive and are sized and positioned in proper proportion to the text and content on a web page, all the better.
