What was it again? Something about meeting some thug-looking guys and a friendly old man on the side of the road… Oh, wait a minute, it’s something about Ford’s patrol men. Now it’s all clear. (sic!)
Loading ...As we’ve seen in the article called “Maximum recommended banner file size”, there are some restrictions regarding the banner ads’ file size. These restrictions are set by publishers in order to keep their pages decently quick to download. They are encompassed in an IAB standard.
Since it’s very easy to go over the line with the banner’s file size, let’s see some simple and quick ways to optimize your banner, whether it’s going to be a static or a flash animated one:
1. Crop or resize your images. If you are going to make a 300×250 px banner don’t load a picture of say 2400×1554 px. Use an image editor like Photoshop, Paint, Photo-Paint, IrfanView etc. to crop off the area of the picture you need.
You know, ad placement is very important. Especially online. Good marketers try to increase the click through rate by placing their ads on well targeted websites. They try to make their ads appear on topic and in context in order to make them relevant.
Sometimes they manage to do it right. Sometimes they fail. FAIL!
But it’s not their fault. It’s fate. The odds. Misfortune. Irony. Laughable coincidences.
