Tips for Creating Great Advertisements! Advertising Unit Tips for Creating Great Advertisements!

Five Step Formula What do readers see first? Visual Caption Headline Copy Signature (Advertisers name, contact information)

Basic Ogilvy Ad Layout 1. Visual at the top of the page. If you are using a photo, bleed it to the edge of the page or ad space for maximum impact. 2. For photos, place a descriptive caption below. 3. Put your headline next. 4. Follow with your main ad copy. Consider a drop cap as a lead-in to help draw the reader into the copy. 5. Place your contact information (signature) in the lower right corner. That's generally the last place a reader's eye gravitates to when reading an ad.

Headline Right Variation Visual first, to the left. If the visual lends itself to a more vertical arrangement or if you want to equalize the importance of the visual and headline, try this. Headline next, to the right of visual. When you break your headline up into several lines like this, you'll probably want to avoid headlines that are too long. Caption below photo. Place main ad copy in two columns. You might want to use a drop cap as a lead-in. Place your contact information (signature) at the bottom of the second column in the lower right corner.

Headline First Variation Headline first. When your headline packs a bigger punch or is more important than the photo, put it up top to grab the reader first. Visual next. Caption below photo. Place main ad copy in two columns. Place your contact information (signature) at the bottom of the second column in the lower right corner.
