These types of ads are displayed in various places on the website and it is one of the oldest forms for advertising on the web. Currently, it still has considerable popularity. This is due to a number of advantages that it has. If we decide on a display campaign, we will effectively build the company’s image or brand awareness on the Internet in an effective way. As you know, most people are visuals. Therefore, properly designed banners (best are dynamic nowadays) give us unlimited possibilities to advertise our services. Additionally, when the banner used by the company uses a uniform image line, which will be well correlated with the brand, it will certainly result in great results.
An additional advantage of display campaigns is that they provide sales stimulation.
