Place your banner ads correctly

Maintain hierarchy
Banner advertisement design relies upon the right balance in each ad, so see your hierarchy. Effective banner advertisements are created to raise brand awareness and make traffic to your website.

Call to action is the text or button that attracts website users to click on. Phrases like “Learn more” or “Get started” or “Watch Now” are excellent examples of CTA. This should be a bright focal position of the advertisement.

Keep it simple

Use buttons appropriately
Depending on the kind of banner, buttons will usually improve the click-through rate of your advertisement. If you’re maintaining to use them, place them after your copy on the lower right side in contrasting colors. Always keep them constant throughout the set of advertisements.

Have a clearly defined frame

Animated web banner advertisements commonly out-perform static banner advertisements and can be very useful in website banner design, but you must make sure that they don’t distract from the message of your advertisement.
