I own a website that have some banners from cj.com and these banners not converting very well. Can you guys look at what I have done and tell me if I did ok or I need to change some banners or the way I put them? I just want then to make me some money and it's not that easy I guess. My site is: todaymortgagerates . net
actually, links works best for me not banners. try to add those links in a paragraph or in the blog post because thats what searchers will find.
I'll agree with etc that banners are not very well converting. People like to read about certain topics and don't feel they are just sold a product. Try to mix into you articles the links very casually.
I agree with the suggestions to use links and suggest that you should test out different things and see what works best for your site. I actually found success with text links that sat between paragraphs of content. Imagine your link, here! Just like that bold text above. I'd make a link like that in between paragraphs and actually got conversions.
That's odd. I thought all you had to do is throw up some banners and head off to the beach? Weird. Why would you expect people to click on banners and then take some kind of action? Banners... who really uses those any more?
