Pixel Advertising - How It Could Make A Comeback

In 2005, The MillionDollarHomepage (MDH) made internet history by selling one million pixels for one dollar per pixel, generating a whopping one million dollars for its owner. Now, almost 2 years and thousands of copy-cat sites later, pixel advertising is all but dead. This writer believes that with the proper implementation, pixel advertising could rise again.

The MDH was a brilliant idea and while it served its purpose, had several flaws that prevented it from thriving after the million pixels were sold. In case the reader isn't familiar with the MDH, I'll provide some basic history. MDH had a 1 megapixel image on its homepage and it sold 10 X 10 pixel blocks of this image for people to advertise on, which would link to their websites when clicked. They could not change the image and were limited as to what details people would see when they moved their mouse over the micro-ad. It sold these 10 X 10 blocks (100 pixels) for one dollar a pixel (the minimum purchase was 100 dollars). All one million pixels sold in just over 4 months (give or take). The site was getting an insane amount of traffic so advertisers were chomping at the bit to get their ad on the website. Some of the space even went up on eBay towards the end for much more than the original price.

The problem with MDH was the price was too high (relatively speaking) that most ads were really too small to see. It was really by the luck of the draw or how flashy your 10 X 10 image was whether your ad got clicked or not. As the dust settled, the advertisers on MDH realized that people were really only coming to the webpage to see if it was filling up and what click traffic they were receiving from the site was "trash" traffic. The copy-cat sites that emerged only compounded the problem by trying to exploit what MDH had already done wrong. A very negative tone echoed throughout the web about micro-advertising and the "fad" has died out over the last 12 months or so. Don't get me wrong, this was obviously a good idea since MDH did achieve its goal, it could have been so much more though.

So how can pixel advertising make a comeback? The same idea as the original site can still be applied but something has to be done to keep visitors coming back for more. Advertisers will no longer pay the one dollar per pixel price for such small, unnoticeable ads so the price must be lowered. Advertisers also need other incentives to advertise on the site. Advertisers need to be able to change their ads when they want. The system needs to be fully automated. The ads need to be accessible other ways than just having the ad displayed on a grid. There needs to be more space available to advertise on but not so much that it becomes a commodity. And finally, the site must be promoted. A good site will just sit there without the proper promotion, I don't care how unique and innovative it is.

These few small changes could really turn a good idea into a great idea and breathe new life into the pixel advertising industry. It seems so simple but no one has been able to effectively put all of these elements in place since the MDH. I think there is still a place out there for pixel advertising. Only time will tell if anyone can pull it off.

Brad Martindale is the founder of Pixdle.com, the world's first billion pixel advertising site based in San Antonio, Texas USA. Established in 2007, he has taken the pixel advertising industry by storm with his unique combined implementation of traditional pixel advertising and search engine techniques.

Benefits of Banner Ads

Since 1994, when banner ads first appeared on the internet, there has been a considerable increase in its use in online marketing. More and more individuals and companies are turning to banner ads for advertising their services, products and websites.

Banner ads yield two benefits. First, they may entice users to click on the banner and go to the advertiser's site. Each time this happens is called a "clickthrough", and the number of clickthroughs divided by the number of impressions is called the "clickthrough ratio" or "click rate". This is easy to measure, and provides a direct measurement of a banner's effectiveness. Get Your Brand New Banners designed at BannersArea.com (http://www.bannersarea.com)

The second benefit of ad banners is building brand recognition. Despite ad agency claims to the contrary, this is almost impossible to measure. User surveys and market research can provide clues, but they are very imprecise and conjectural compared to the straightforward business of measuring clickthroughs and site traffic. Whether brand recognition is part of your strategy depends entirely upon your individual situation. If it is, then things like click ratios and conversion rates can't be used as absolute criteria, and the process of measuring effectiveness becomes much more subjective.

But if you want those ads seen, you'd better make them compelling.

New surfing tools have been created precisely to block your ads. InterMute (www.intermute.com) and AtGuard (www.atguard.com), for instance, block banner ads, animated GIFs, pop-up screens and even background sound - greatly cutting down site loading times.Get Your Brand New Banners designed at BannersArea.com (http://www.bannersarea.com)

1. Use the smaller rectangle ads. This size of ad generally will look like a regular link. So, you should be able to place these small squares strategically throughout your website, make them look like your regular links. It’s important to blend them into the framework of your website.

2. Make sure you design your own color template. You want your Adsense ads to blend into your website. The most common color to use for the actual Adsense url link is blue. But, if blue does not work well with your site make sure to color code the url link to the same color you have as a default link color. Make sure the text color you use on your website matches the Adsense text. Background colors must also blend together.

3. Strategically place your ads so that the remain in the viewers eye span. Do not put them at the bottom of your page. People rarely make it down to the bottom. Google has a great tool on their Adsense website which shows you how the majority of people eyes track through a website. Putting them at the top and left and right hand sides usually work best.

4. The better the content of your website, the better the Adsense ads Google provides. There are ads that pay as high as $80 a click. So, it’s imperative to make sure your website is “choked” full of great content. Make sure that your keywords in your Meta tags match the content on your website. You do not want fat loss ads popping up on a website for motorcycle parts. Make that mistake and your Adsense earnings will plummet.

5. Use pictures to draw attention to your Adsense ads. It’s a small black hat technique that Google will frown upon. But, their policy states you must have a border between the ads and the pictures, plus they state, the pictures can’t match the ads. But, if you use your head and think outside the box, you can find a way to use images.

I hope you found these tips useful and they make your Adsense earnings soar.

Banner Advertising - Popular in the 90's, Died in Early 2000, Bouncing Back in 2007

A banner ad is an advertisement placed on a Web site either above, below or on the sides of the Web site's main content and is linked to the advertiser's own Web site. Banner ads are graphic images used on websites to advertise a product or service. Banner ads are displayed in many different sizes, but common sizes used are 460 pixels wide by 60 pixels high. Other common sizes include 460 by 55 and 392 by 72. In the early days of the Internet, banners ads were ads with text and graphic images.

The first clickable banner ad was sold by Global Network Navigator (GNN-One of the very first commercially supported web publications and one of the very first web sites ever developed) in 1993 to a law firm. The first web site to sell banner ads in large quantities was Article Marketing hotwired.com. They sold their first banner ad to AT&T on October 25, 1994. There is a dispute over what company actually paid for the first banner: also credited as the first was a banner ad sold to Coors also in October 1994. In those early days, banner ads could contain graphic images and text but with today's technology such as Flash, banners are now complex and can be ads with text, animated graphics an sound.

Banner ads were measured by the number of impressions they generated (how many times the banner was displayed). Ken McCarthy, a well known Internet Trainer, was the first back in May or 1994 to introduce the concept of a clickable/trackable ad. Ken felt that be able to measure the return on investments was the only way banner ads would prove sustainable over the long run.

Banner ads are dispersed throughout the web by paid services and also free Banner Exchanges. In essence, there are two ways that you can benefit from placing free banner ads;

1. You can create a banner ad for your own products or you Affiliate products and display them on your own website.
2. You can join a number of the free banner exchanges found on the Internet. Just conduct a keyword search for free banner ads or banner exchanges and you will find as many as you wish to deal with.

A Banner Exchange is comprised of a network of participating websites that display banner ads in exchange for credits that can be converted to banner ads that are displayed on other sites. There is a predetermined exchange rate. These credits allow you to display your banner ads on other websites. Members of large banner exchanges have the potential for their banner ads to be shown on thousands of other web sites. Typically, you could expect an banner ad exchange rate of 2:1 or 3:1 which means that for each time you show 2 or 3 banner ads on your site, the exchange will show your banner ad one time.

Web Banner Advertising Secrets

Web banner advertising used to be very popular many years ago when the internet first started. Banners were usually found on most web sites. However with the abuse of these adverts people became less inclined to click on the adverts and this meant the decline of banner adverts. These type of adverts started to receive really low click through rates below 0.5 percent. However, these days with the high prices of PPC adverts and ezine advertising these types of adverts are making a comeback and many of the very successful marketers are using it.

There are two ways that you can use banner adverts that work. The first is to design a very visual banner usually animated that catches your attention and causes the visitor to click through to your web site. The Internet Marketing Center have many of these kind of banners which have click through rates between twelve and fifteen percent which is really exceptional. The second kind of way that you can use a banner is to have a very plain design using blue text on white. The blue text is similar to a hyperlink and will increase your click through rate. The white background makes the banner look like content and also enhances the click through rate.

The effective method for using banner advertising is the placement of the banner on the web site that you are advertising on. You need to ensure that you place your banner towards the top of the web page as this is where your users are more likely to click on your adverts. If you place your banners towards the bottom of the page or in a position that your visitors can't see it will significantly reduce your click through rates. You also need to find web sites in a similar niche to yours that are not competitors and negotiate competitive advert rates to display your banner. If you can I also suggest that you first ask for a free trial to see if your banner advertising will be successful on their web site.

Once you master the art of web banner advertising this will definitely give your business the extra edge and you will generate profits from a different advertising source to your traditional ways of advertising.

Google Adsense Is Essential For Content Sites For 3 Reasons

Discover How Other Webmasters Are Increasing Their Income

To know why Google Adsense is essential for your content oriented website is first to know how this works.

The concept is simple if you think about it. The publisher or the webmaster inserts a java script into a certain website. Each time the page is accessed, the java script will pull advertisements from Google's Adsense program. The ads that are targeted should therefore be related to the content contained on the web page serving the ad. If a visitor clicks on an advertisement, the webmaster serving the ad earns a portion of the money that the advertiser is paying the search engine for the click.

The search engine is the one handling all the tracking and payments, providing an easy way for webmasters to display content-sensitive and targeted ads without having the hassle of soliciting advertisers, collecting funds, or monitoring the clicks and statistics, which could be a very time-consuming task in itself. It seems that there is never a shortage of advertisers in the program from which the search engine pulls the Google Adsense ads. In addition, webmasters are less concerned by the lack of information search engines are providing and are more focused in making cash from these search engines.

The first reason why Google Adsense is essential for content oriented websites is that it already has come a long way in understanding the needs of publishers and webmasters. Together with its continuous progression is the appearance of a more advanced system that allows full ad customization. Webmasters are given the opportunity to choose from many different types of text ad formats to better complement their website and fit their webpage layout.

The different formatting enables the website owners the possibility of more click-throughs from visitors who may or may not be aware of what they are clicking on. It can also appeal to the people visiting thus make them take that next step of looking up what it is all about. This way the people behind the Google Adsense will get their content read and make profit in the process.

The second reason is the ability of Google Adsense publishers to track not only how their websites are progressing but also the earnings based on the webmaster-defined channels. Recent improvements in search engines has given webmasters the capability to monitor how their ads are performing using customizable reports that has the capacity to detail page impressions, clicks and click-through rates. Webmasters and publishers can now track specific ad formats, colors and pages within a website. Trends are also easily spotted.

With the real-time reporting at hand, the effectiveness of the changes made will be assessed quickly. There is time to sort out the contents that people are making the most clicks on. The ever-changing demands are met while generating cash for the webmasters and publishers. The more flexible tools also allow webmasters to group a website's pages by URL, domain, ad type or category, which provides them some accurate insight on which pages, ads and domains are performing best.

The last and final reason is that the advertisers have realized the benefits associated with having their ads served on targeted websites. Thus increasing the possibility that a prospective Internet surfer will have an interest in their products and services. All because of the content and its constant maintenance. As opposed to those who are not using Google Adsense in their websites, they are given the option of having other people do their content for them, giving them the benefit of having successful and money-generating websites.

Google Adsense is all about targeted content. The more targeted your content is, the more targeted the search engines’ ads will be. There are some webmasters and publishers who are focused more on their website's content and how best to maintain them rather than the cash that the ads will generate for them. This is the part where the effectiveness is working its best.

There was a time when people were not yet aware of the money to be achieved from advertisements. The cash generated only came into existence when the webmasters and publishers realized how they could make Google Adsense be that generator. In those days, the content was the most important factor that was taken seriously. It still is. With the allure of money, of course.
