I literally have millions of banner ads across safelist sites. Before setting a banner I always doubt wether it's worth it.

Creating, setting up, and keeping banners up-to-date takes a lot of time and effort. Additionally, banners don't generate as many clicks as email ads or solo ads.

Probably this is worrying you too.

So, I decided to track my banners for the Hour-by-Hour funnel to find the answer.

And he answer is yes! Banner ads still working well. It's absolutely worth your time to use them in advertising.

As you can see in the screenshot above, the banners I track generated 284 visitors and 7 signups. That's a conversion rate of 41:1, which is outsanding for safelist traffic.

Setting up the tracker and the banner on several sites took about 15 minutes. Not bad for 7 email subscribers in return.

The number one reason banners work so well is that there's no incentive to click them. No credits, no cash rewards - just a purely appealing message that they spread.

If a prospect click, it means they are truly interested and ready to take further action - converting into a signup or a buyer.

The greatest thing about banner ads is that you set them and forget them. Traffic sites will expose your ads without you needing to login or click any links and buttons.

There's one last thing I want to share about banners today. The idea that I learned from great Claudie C. Hopkins, the author of "Scientific Advertising" book:

There is one simple and right way to answer many advertising questions. Ask yourself,"Would this help a salesman sell the goods?" "Would it help me sell them if I met the buyer in person?"

So keep in mind that the only purpose of banner ads should be to make a sale or signup (which is essentialy a sale too).

If you want banner ads that convert, the best place to start is My Daily Mailer.

I recommend it because my banners convert into email subscribers there.

They place your banners in special site areas. Not a bunch of flashy ads, but a single one, making it impossible to ignore or avoid seeing it.
