Internet Advertising
It is dynamic with multimedia- supporting text and graphics video sound all together.
Space is a problem, as regards size of the banners etc.
A web page would be 91% editorial and 9% advertising.
Invokes immediate action as you at-least need to click on the ad.
First response is immediate as when the user clicks, the person is directed to other web
page with more details.
The user has high attention level and concentration while using the net, and hence they
notice the ad. (please refer the chapter)
This can be much focused.
Advertisements catch users when they are on the lookout for some thing. For example the search is for travel on a search engine there are ads of travel agents on the net.
Thus we see that advertising is changing and so are the rules for advertising on the internet. So while designing or formulating any advertising strategy for a brand on the internet a manager has to take in to account factors like: -
1. The Internet has made a huge impact on advertising. Companies should be careful as regards joining the IT bandwagon. They should not advertise on the net just to project themselves as a techno savvy company or maybe because their competitor is doing the same thing. It should be a well-planned campaign full of specific information and attention catching.
2. The 'net' charges are on the higher side (though there has been a steep decrease in the rates in the last few months). Hence people would be wary of the fact that ads consume a lot of online web time and hence they avoid clicking on average ads. Therefore, advertises should be designed in such a fashion that they attract attention and induce people to click on the net.
3. One more thing would be to generate 'search' specific advertising. This would mean that if I give a search for books on the search engine, the ads displayed would be related to the books.
4. Generally, people perceive the ads to be time consuming and full of unwanted information. Care should be taken to design the ads in such a way that the information they provide or the hyperlinks they provide to a site gives adequate and specific information.
5. The ads and the subsequent information on the web site should be constantly updated and highlighted in the ads and thus induce repeated clicks on the ad.
6. Last but not the least; the ads should be designed so as to attract attention of maximum number of people and inducing them to click, failing to do so the advertiser ends up defeating his own purpose.
