banner comp

gumtree: looking for love banner. This is a looped banner of around 4 seconds that has flashing text with a question "looking for love" the banner is a direct link to the website match.com in the corner of the banner it advertises for free registration. in my opinion this is a good banner it gets its point over in four second and its proves that banners dont need to be in your face or take over your screen.


eBay: virgin credit car. this banner has no flashing nothing is looped there is hardly anything that catches the eye. but that isnt why this banners isnt as good i dont find it good because theres to much text for a banner. in my opinion a banner should only give out a little bit of information so that the view should want to vistit the website.
