Earlier today, I published a tutorial on how to place “Advertise Here” banners on blogs. In the tutorial, I only shared “advertise here” banner codes for “125×125” and “300×250” banners. So, in this tutorial, I want to explain to you how to create custom “advertise here” banner of any size online, for free at bannerfans.com.
At BannerFans website, you can generate banners which you can use for your “Advertise Here” banners without the need for Adobe Photoshop. You can also make an advertising banner which you can use to promote your blog, website or business on other sites or on advertising networks.
Let’s assume you want to create a 160×600 “Advertise here” banner similar to the one below.
Follow the steps below:
==> Go to www.bannerfans.com
==> Click on “Layouts” tab. You will see “select your banner size“.
==> Select “Preset“, click on the drop down arrow and click on “160×600 Wide Skyscrapper“
==> Click on the “Text & Fonts” tab
==> Delete the text in “line 1” and enter “Advertise Here“. You can change the Font face, Font size, font color if you want to.
==> Delete the text in “line 2”. You can replace with your phone number or email (Optional)
==> Click “Update my banner”
Once your banner has been updated, you might notice that the “Advertise Here” is wider than the banner size.
==> Click on the “Text & Fonts” tab
==> Delete the “Advertise Here” in “line 1” and replace with “Advertise“
==> Delete whatever is in “line 2” and replace with “Here“. You can set the font size to “26px“
==> You can add your phone number or email to “line 3” if you want to.
==> Click “Update my banner”
==> Drag the “Advertise” and “Here” to the center of your banner
==> Click “Update my banner”
==> You can make other adjustments to your banner till you are satisfied. After making changes, always click “Update my Banner” to view your latest changes.
==> Once satisfied, click “Download Banner“. Save it to your PC.
To use it on your Blogger blog,
==> Log in to your blog dashboard, click on LAYOUT. Click “Add a gadget” on the sidebar
==> Select the “Image” gadget.
==> Browse your computer for the image you saved to your PC and upload it
==> Enter the URL of the Advertise/contact page of your blog in the “Link” box
==> Click “Save“
View your blog.
NOTE: Easier if you generate an “Advertise Here” banner size that will fit perfectly with the width of your sidebar especially if you don’t know how to use css to center the banner. You can read: “How To Adjust Widths of Entire Blog and Sidebars” if you don’t know how to adjust the width of your blog sidebar.
I hope to write on how to make an advertising banner and some advertising websites soon.
