This decision can be taken on the factors like place where you want that banner to advertise for you and also the contents of the banner.
If the place is a public place like a square or crossroads then it must be of sufficiently larger size with big writings. And if you want that banner to market for you on internet, then it must be of normal size allowable by the size.
Next comes the content, so you can choose from various banners on the basis of contents. You think the best and attractive

SFI has one of the best available banners for your website. Just choose which one that is best for you. Remember, there are different people in the world with different view, so you can really say which one they will like.

Hello,

All the SFI banners contained in the marketing aids section are great and make good impressions.

However, to choose the best one for your site or blog, you need to do some little work and know some 'facts' about your site and about it's visitors.

By this, I mean: What category of people constitute the major percentage of visitors to your site?

Old people?
Stay at home moms?
Employed people looking for a way out?
Newbies?

Etc.

How

A danger is that we pick out the Banner we like instead of seeing it from the eyes of our clients. One thing I have done is print out a page with 5 banners on it. Copy that page 10 times. Then I ask 10 friends to rate the banners from 1-5 the best being 1. Are you advertising SFI Affiliate opportunity or TripleClicks? Lets say it is the Affiliate op. I ask 5 friends that are of a character I would work well with and who would be hard working in the system. And then I ask 5 random friends. Say it

Great question! This is something I did a lot of research on before I started to build my website. There are endless points of interest when considering what is best suited; Thematic color design, Color combinations, Background colors, Font colors, Color clashes, Target Audience & Branding. You never want to use more than two bold colors on your website, that in mind I wouldn't choose a flashy banner. A common mistake many make is for there banner color to match the background when instead it

Test which one gets the best response - from my experience text type banners are the best e,g, a text message appearing as a banner, which you can create yourself with a bit of basic graphics skill, you could base it on the authorised ads, and upload that to your website

If You Are Already Using Mutiple Traffic Exchanges And Safelist Program Most Of The Time These Platform Offer Banner Advertising. Instead Of Using All Your Credits For Mailing And Sending Direct Traffic You Should Trade Those Credits For Banner Advertising.

Once you decide what size fits best from the multiple choices, sure you can use visual appeal criteria or sampling of others to see what they they, I suggest you look at conversion rates and traffic results of what works for your traffic.

For example, you can choose three banners to try , enter a 3 digit SFI keycode describing that banner in the link, and rotate the banners using an ad server. There are many on the web. One I use is adbutler.com where the number of exposures is tracked

Good question. There are several things to consider when you're selecting a banner.

First, narrow down the choices by selecting a banner that's the right size. Then select one that uses the right colors for your site. You want to find a banner that will attract attention but not clash with the color scheme of your website.

Then think about your target market. Choose a banner that has content appropriate for the market you're trying to reach. For example, there are many

You may want to check the design and content of your website. If you are into web design then it would be easy for you to decide. But I would suggest to place a banner that has some catchy image and messages into it, that would attract your website visitors to click your banner.
