All affiliate programs run display ads of various types and quality. These ads are usually text boxes, graphics, or multimedia. Their effect and usefulness varies quite a lot. This is another area where the marketing part of affiliate marketing comes into play, and there are some considerations for affiliates to deal with.
As attention getters, the text box type is the low end. Theyre basic, theyre simple, and theyre not real attention getters, unless relevant to the site audience. These ads are however good space users, and can operate effectively on any site, also taking care of the bald patches, in some cases. They can help maximize use of space.
Some people prefer not to clutter their sites, and these ads do have the advantage of being relatively good space users. As pure e-commerce ads, however, they leave a lot to be desired, and they often suffer in comparison to the higher profile, more graphic, ads. This is more about visibility than content. The graphics dont add information, just make them easier to see.
The multimedia ads are definitely the highest profile approach, very common in some areas of affiliate marketing, particularly media and sales related materials. These are complex, sometimes hard to run and manage, and can be nuisances when setting up to match landing page protocols.
Top of the line of the display ads market is the multimedia ad, which is sometimes a nuisance to run, and can be an irritant, not an asset. The obvious case is the blocker ad, which has to be clicked to move through to the page. Thats not necessarily appreciated by the users, and they make a point of not clicking on these things.
Some of these things are also very high impact. Theyre oversold, in fact. An affiliate multimedia ad that has to be clicked so you can see a page can be a pest, and turn off your audience. So youve got an important ad that is actually turning people away.
This is where you start setting your own rules, enforcing quality control and creating your own standards. All display ads have some strengths and weaknesses, and if youre going to be committed to them, you need the tools to do the job.
This is where Niche N Easy is a good option. It can handle any ad. You have full operational control. You can handle layout, running multimedia software, site functions and applications, easily.
