Ads
Banner Advertising, what makes it work? How
can you get the best response rates and click through rates for your ads. No, it’s not all guess work.
Banner Ads are every where on the web. Their job is to catch a customer and to get
them to link onto a certain website or to buy a certain product/service.
Each banner you see is a product of guess
work. No one really knows if one banner
will work better than another.
