Using banners to generate traffic continues to be a good idea.

This is why you see banners everywhere you go online.

If you have an online home business you want to get traffic to banners should be one strategy you use.

Here are a few banner ad tips on how to do that.

1. Banners online generally are all the same size. Use the space effectively to get your visitors attention.

2. Pictures. A picture is worth a thousand words for capturing attention and getting the click through to your site.

3. Size does matter. Generally smaller is better. Wasting words and pictures will not generate better results and may actually hurt you.

4. Pay someone. I use Fiverr.com and pay $5 for a banner. This is the way to go if you don’t want to design your own banners

5. Tell them what to do. Add the words click here on your banner if you want them to click thru to your site.

6. Target your advertising. Buy ad space on websites that relate to the theme of your site, but do not compete with it.

1800bannerads.com is a good place to trade banner advertising as well.

Follow these banner ad tips and get busy driving traffic to your site with banners.
