Flukeit

Several days ago, I began seeing animated image ads showing up in my 728×90 leaderboard ad block. It’s not just one, there are several of them. These aren’t the video ads that Google mentioned months ago, because they do not have audio. I have never seen these type of ads on my sites before, and neither has my visitors. I know this because I have seen an upswing of clicks from this site.

I strongly believe that with a moving image in the ad, this will drastically reduce the effects of Banner Blindness. I have seen an increase in revenue of 40-60% in the last week since these ads began appearing.

This morning I received my holiday greeting in my email box. It was an e-card labeled S.N.O.W.(Simulated Niceness of Winter)

It was kind of cheesy, but I watched it anyway. I guess it was the staff of Yahoo! Publishers Network talking on it.

Here’s the link if you care to watch it.
