Are Banners The Key To Making Money Online?

I had always wondered what the very best methods were to make money online. After learning and failing for years I finally took the advice of an old kungfoo master. He suggested (Japan Voice Start) You Must Ask And Then Receive (Japan Voice Stop)

OK, well it was not a Kungfoo Master, but it was sound advice that a good friend gave me back when I first started business marketing. The truth is all you really have to do is ask people to give you a second look, they will buy your ads if you ask them the right way.

Just be sure you can deliver what you tell them you will! Over promising is the worst thing you could possibly do. At the very least under promise so you can over deliver and then they will tell others about your advertising as you exceeded there expectations.

To get back on the topic of this post, are banners really the key to making money online? First I want to go on record by stating that there is no one way to skin a cat just like there is no one way to make money online. However, if your blog receives limited amounts of traffic compared to the authorities in your niche, banners could very well be the one thing that makes or breaks your blog for the long haul.

I have run multiple sites and blogs throughout my career online, some have worked, some haven’t. But all these successes and failures have taught me that giving up is not the answer. When I started this blog I told myself it needs to work, therefore figure out how to make it work!

Although a lofty goal that I could have easily failed, it actually is happening as we speak. I never expected such growth so quickly from any one website, especially a blog about making money online. The market is so full of blogs on this topic that I seriously thought I had no chance. Luckily for me, I do have something to say and people like to listen to it.

Here I go getting off topic again, to get back on topic…

In my opinion banners are the key to making money online if your website is not as big as others in your niche. Companies buy banners for the simple fact that placement of them is easy for visitors to see. Although the advertisers may never get a click, an image says a 1000 words. The same principle applies to a advertisement. If the ad image was made correctly at the start it should speak to a visitor with a lasting message, even if they don’t click the ad.

This is one thing I have tried my best to accomplish with InfectedByBugs, I always wanted people to feel comfortable with the ad placements so they make sense and not look stuck on or in your face advertising which is annoying to visitors.
