10. FREE IS A MAGNETIC WORD – You could advertise a “free” offer on your banner.  People love “free stuff” but the freebie should relate to your target audience.    

For example, if I’m offering a book I’ve authored for sale on my site I wouldn’t offer a free sample of chocolate chip cookies.  

   What I would offer free would be a download from my site of the first chapter and the Table of Contents page. 

 This would give them the chance to see if the book meets their needs, and also act as an incentive to get their hands on the rest of the story by buying the whole book.

If you design your banner ads with a purpose, they won't be viewed as a nuisance to your website visitor.

 Rather, they'll see them as benefiting them with additional information or offers. 

Don’t confuse “banner” ads with what is called “pop-ups”.  They are two very different ad types and “pop-ups” are annoying to web page viewers. 

The one thing you definitely don’t want to do, is to annoy and discourage the prospect that is viewing your web page. He or She could be your next client. Have a Wonderful Time.
