What Is MyAds?
In a nutshell, MyAds is a payperclick banner advertising system that allows you to advertise on MySpace and getting massive amount of traffic to you banner by millions of Myspace users.
You can start with a little budget of $5 a day and getting a pretty good exposition. Setting up an ad is very easy. In a few minutes, you can set up your own banner by using their ad building tool, or uploading your own. Below, an detailed image of the set up page.
The page where you set up the ads is composed of four ad options:
- You can choosing the ad size.
- You can choosing the title of your banner
- You can add a brief description.
- You can choosing a background color and typing your URL.
Once adds all data you can preview the results as setting a budget. By choosing your target audience you can increase the chance to convert your ad because Myads allows you not only to select by demograpichs(age, country, gender, ets), but you are able to pick the categories of interest and the occupations of the persons.
In comparison with Facebook, it’s hard to choose who is the better, but both should be an important part of your marketing strategy. Each has pros and cons and the best choice of the two will depends from the type of campaign you are running.
