Manufacturing a high-quality banner rarely exceeds € 100, which can be compared to developing a layout for advertising in magazines and is not comparable to manufacturing a carrier for outdoor advertising, and even more so for advertising on radio or TV. At the same time, the production of contextual advertising is not worth anything at all.

Through Internet advertising, you attract users to your site, and already within the framework of your web resource, you provide a potential client with any information of interest to him, using interactive services and other features of the site.

The main types of online advertising:
- website promotion in search engines is a set of measures, the purpose of which is to ensure that your site gets to the first pages in the search results for keywords and phrases, i.e. increase the number of visitors – the target audience of your site. Search engines provide the greatest influx of visitors to the site only when your Internet project is in the top positions on the search results pages. Often, search engine optimization takes away most of the advertising budget, and in some cases, the entire budget allocated for an online advertising campaign.
- contextual advertising is one of the most effective and popular ways to increase sales on the Internet – a powerful tool for attracting targeted traffic to the site by placing text ads in search engines and on sites corresponding to the subject of the search query, focusing on keywords, phrases, geographic location of users. The essence of this advertisement is to show your advertisement only to those users who request certain queries you need in search engines. You can customize your ad impressions based on user geography and even time of day. Thus, the maximum coverage of the target audience is achieved – all customers looking for your products and services will see ads either in the search or on a thematic resource, and you will pay only for targeted visitors.
- banner advertising (display advertising) is an effective way to increase sales and increase company awareness on the Internet. Advertising is carried out by placing static or dynamic ad units on sites related to the subject and by clicking the visitor to the advertiser’s site. A beautifully animated banner attracts the most attention of users, which allows you to distinguish your ad from the background of others and increase company awareness if the banner image uses a logo or other corporate symbols and corporate identity elements. If your company is promoting a product or service, you can place banners not only on specialized sites but also on any portals with high traffic.
Naturally, advertising on the Internet consists not only of the above types, there are and are constantly emerging new formats of advertising on the Internet, such as placement of video clips, advertising in online games, advertising on blogs and social networks, pop-ups, and spyware, participation in ratings, affiliate programs, etc. However, other advertising methods are not widespread enough.
