Best Practices

We strongly suggest using your logo as your ad image. It promotes your brand and can be used throughout your ad campaign. If you need to change your ad message, it can be done easily, eliminating any need to upload a new image.

If you do decide to use something more attention grabbing, here are some best practices for designing an effective ad.

Clear Images, Minimal Copy

Since we offer a 140 characters of copy, keep your important information in the message area. It will stay ledgable on any device. Your ad image should include clear, attention-grabbing graphics. If you include text in the graphic keep it short but make people want to learn or know more.

Strong Call to Action

Encourage people to interact with your ad. This can be a bold button in your image or a bold link in your message copy. Use phrases like "Order Online Now", "Learn More", or "Get a FREE Quote" to help guide people to the next step in learning who you are and what you have to offer.

Click to call

When people are browsing on their smartphones, they often prefer to call a business rather than visit their website. Including a phone number in your ad message will make it easier for potential customer to contact you.
