What color palettes are the most successful?

If you want to get the highest impact with lowest effort, we recommend optimizing your color palettes. Choosing the right palettes can distinguish between ads that will be seen - and click - the ads that users will ignore them directly.

We list some strategies below that are designed to reduce the ad indifference, ie, a tendency to ignore any user that is separate from the main content of the site. By doing these changes, your ad will be more interesting for users. The goal is not to create the user as the ad content, but allows users to view and read the ads before you can click on the interesting things for them.

Strategy colors should be used on your site will vary depending on ad placement and background color ad location. See table below for a quick reference on the advice of our strategy to be successful in your site.

* To complement, use colors that already exist on your site, but do not identify with the color of the background and border that are in the exact location of the ad.
* To make a contrast, select a light color with the background of your site. Contrast is only recommended for sites with dark background, so you should use a palette with white background, the border is white, and blue titles.
