Make sure the offer is similar to the one you have chosen to use. If it is about an app install, look for similar ads. You will need to spend some time on the research, but the results will show your increase.


Your aim is to understand common things that are true for different ads. You should analyze image types, keywords, headlines and “clickable” phrases. It would be a great idea to click on one of such phrases to see the destination page.


The other one useful thing is to see what platform is a basis for website with ads being observed. The mentioned tool is the one that most people often ignore.

A good way to choose right images is to look on your successful competitors. Try to find some similar images to the one they use. But don’t copy them fully. Search for something that works better. It could be different color, pattern, style, etc.



Tips to design the banners

The frame of the banner might be very different. Be creative. Add body text, headlines and CTA elements, use the knowledge you’ve received while spying. Then, combine the pattern you’ve created with various images. Save your result with plain names. It will help you not to confuse images when there are many of them.
