Making Your Ads Work!

Written by Kristy A. Taylor

Advertising needn't be expensive, and for those in repparttar

know; advertising can also be free. But occasionally your 'free' ads can get lost in repparttar 101059

e-zine jungle. And, unfortunately, many people misuse their free ads. By 'misuse' I mean; do not word their ads appropriately. How many times have you seen repparttar 101060

exact same ad for repparttar 101061

exact same product? Probably too many times. Why would you want to risk having your ad placed directly underneath somebody else's ad that is exactly repparttar 101062

same as yours?

The best way to use, not misuse, your ad is to use a two-step system. Don't use repparttar 101063 advertising material that repparttar 101064 affiliate program has supplied. Why? Because it will be repparttar 101065 same material that every other affiliate will be using. Try to write your own ads. Don't worry about inventing that eye catching headline and having those action generating words, leave all that hype to repparttar 101066 so-called experts.

One of repparttar 101067 most effectively worded ads is an ad that is clear and straightforward. There's no need to hide your product underneath an ALL CAPS heading, a lot of BS promises and finally a URL that is as long as my grandma's knitting yarn. Ultimately you want to aim for a short two-liner. Why? Because it will be quicker to read and it will stand out from all of repparttar 101068 5 to 8 liners. Most of repparttar 101069 longer ads disguise repparttar 101070 actual product with a lot of fancy words, only to have repparttar 101071 prospect 'click away' within 5 seconds of reaching repparttar 101072 site, because: 'they've seen it before'. That's an instant loss. You don't even get a chance to capture repparttar 101073 prospects details.
