Best practices

Use high-quality images that are visually striking and engaging. This will help grab the user’s attention and set the tone for the page.

Choose images that are relevant to the page’s message and help communicate the message or purpose.

Use clear, concise text that is easy to read and understand. This will help grab the user’s attention and make it easy for them to understand the message of the banner.

Keep the text short and to the point. A text banner with too much text can be overwhelming for the user and make it difficult for them to understand the message.
