A web banner or banner ad is a type of advertising through websites and these banners will be posted on these websites with a add server.  This kind of online marketing needs to insert an advertisement in the form of banner into a web page. The main purpose of this type of marketing is to attract the traffic and make them come to your web sites and pages through connecting the website you want to promote with other websites. There are central ad servers through which these banners can be posted in many cases.

The advertiser who wants to advertise his website will have to pay some amount for getting the services of marketing from other website, he will have to pay the amount after scanning the logfile that way he will be able to detect if any person has actually visited his website through that specific site or not, and in case no one has done so, there is no reason to pay any cost. The payment depends on the amount the content provided has paid to get the internet services so that he can give you the services of marketing.

Web banner’s purpose is same as other marketing purposes and that is to promote products and services and also to promote websites related to these issues, give consumer and customer’s reasons why they should use your services and products. But the difference in this form of marketing and other forms is that in this you can keep a check on progress of your campaign; through logfile you can see how many people have visited your website on daily basis. This is impossible through other type. Through this campaign one can also check in which product or service the visitor has shown interest and for what he has came to your site. Through click tag you can also know what the visitor have been doing while he was on your page. These are no doubt exceptional for their focus.

There are too many people who do not regard this marketing campaign with good feedback. Mostly servers keep bad opinion and give negative rating to this. They do it because they think that these campaigns distract users from original websites and make them to focus on these banners instead. They also claim that these types of advertisements are just waste of bandwidth. Even users and visitor sometimes get irritated with so many banners and ads so many new browsers have given option to their users to disable the pop-ups, there are also proxy servers available to download so that these ads can be blocks.
