How to Select a Banner Designer

There are many ways that you can go about getting an advertising banner. You can try to use free banner creators, but if you want a professional looking banner then you should look for a designer.

No matter where you decide to look for a banner ad designer, follow these simple tips to get the best service:

Your Budget
The first thing to look for is the price. Prices for banner ads range a lot. Many designers offer package deals, so make sure you do your research and select a banner ad designer that offers the option of packages and just custom web banners within your budget.

Look at their Samples
You want to select a designer that has experience. The best way to gauge a designer’s experience and the quality of their work is to look at their samples. If they have no samples to show you, that should raise a red flag.

Turnaround Time
Turnaround time varies by designer. While some designers will offer you a fast turnaround time for an additional cost, others will just include it or have an already speedy turnaround time. However, if you are on a very tight deadline, you will probably have to pay a little extra for a 24 hour service.

Customer Service
When you are looking for a banner ad designer, especially online, check out how they prefer to be contacted in case you have a question. There should at least be an email address, but preferably, they should tell you how long it will take for them to respond to your questions or concerns.

Revisions
No matter what you pay, make sure to at least get one revision included when working with a banner ad designer. This is important, you don’t want to pay to have a custom web banner made, only to see an error and then find out you have to pay a lot of extra fees for a revision.
