			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Anyone who's ever done online marketing knows that creating ad copy for the Internet is slightly different than traditional print media. Here are a few tips and tricks for those who are new to the exciting and constantly evolving world of online advertising:</p>
<p><strong>Keep It Simple.</strong> Don't overwhelm people. Online, you only have a matter of seconds to grab someone's attention and get your point across. This means using more images and fewer words. </p>
<p><strong>Get their attention. </strong>Replace product features and benefits with calls to action. Example: “This product lets you…” becomes “Click Here to Download Now!”</p>
<p><strong>Create a better slogan.</strong> Be less specific. You want to present yourself as having a solution for any business.</p>
<p><strong>Call them to action! </strong>Use trigger phrases like “Save Money” or "Click Here" to get instant attention and entice potential customers to click on your ad.</p>
<p>What techniques have you found to be most helpful in creating online advertisements?</p>
