Advertising Banners for Website Promotion

Banner advertising is well known as a ‘tried and tested’ form of website marketing. Its cost effective, allows you to display valuable images, such as your brand and the more creative your are, the more your adverts stand out. You can even use big brand advertising companies such as Google™ or Yahoo™ to convert text advertising to present banners on high traffic or niche websites.

Banner advertising charges vary from low cost options such as pay per impression advertising to higher converting methods such as cost per click banner adverts. Big companies usually only offer the cost per click option but you can limit your budget in a number of different ways to ensure advertising costs can be controlled. When you use banners to advertise the common images used are gif banners, this form of banner allows the creative use of small animations. If you’re looking for a more complex animation or even an interactive banner then flash banners should be your choice. Flash advertising banner creation services are not as expensive now but make sure the website or banner advertising company support this type of website banner.

If your working with a small budget another option is a banner exchange, this is often a free service where your website banner is
shown on other relevant websites in exchange for banner impressions on your site. You can also buy impressions quite cheaply on websites such as ebay, but these banners can be far less targeted.

Text link advertising

This is one of the most popular advertising medium online, text link promotion is not to be ignored, just because it’s not full of creative images or animations it does not make it less valuable. Website promotion using text links does however require creative writing, often the space available in a text advert is limited and competition can be high due to the nature of its popularity.

Online advertising options

Large text link advertising providers usually operate a cost per click tariff but this is not the only option, some growing search engine companies offer monthly, quarterly, and even yearly sponsored advertising. Basically you sponsor a certain keyword or keywords and then every time that keyword is used your advert will appear on a rotational basis. The smaller search engines may also operate hundreds of other search engines which will also be displaying your ads. We recommend you take a look at alternative text link providers but do not discount the market leaders such as Google™ they can provide huge advertising coverage and use advanced technology to optimise your text links or banner adverts.
