Urbia bannersNewest Review: ... unlike so many banners that seem to take your attention away from the screen, this one actually drew my eye without irritating me at all. No flashing. No horrible colours. And on top of all that it actually was asking me if I wanted to win something and gave me an option for 'later'. I like the colour, even though some would say is was plain, I do not think many people argue with the fact that constant flashing bright coloured banners pouncing up at you can be so annoying - and often would stop you from ever going into it - whereas with this one, I was actually tempted! ... more |

This is the first banner I have ever written an opinion about - It immediately caught my eye. The reason I like it is because, unlike so many banners that seem to take your attention away from the screen, this one actually drew my eye without irritating me at all. No flashing. No horrible colours. And on top of all that it actually was asking me if I wanted to win something and gave me an option for 'later'.

OK another false looking browser button with a prize invite. Sorry but this really does nothing for me. Its plain without much effort gone into attracting the attention of potential clients. If a company are not sure about what makes people click on the banner money is not always the answer. Perhaps they could do a bit of MR via email or pay a good web company to help them find what their potential customers are looking for? To be honest its just like the other banners for those other companies... surprise surprise their names escape me. Who am I on about .................Oh well back to Dooyoo. ...

What is wrong with advertisers that they can get banners just so so wrong! The urbia banners are pretty much the prime example of exactly what NOT to do. Now, I'm no advertising guru but I do know exactly what gets my own and other people's backs up about banner ads...and I belive that urbia's banners cover most of them... Firstly they are garishly coloured. OK, not the most annoying thing in the world, but lets be honest, who is going to be attracted to disgusting colours when there are more pleasant colour schemes out there? What impression does this give of the site? Yes, it may catch the eye...no, it does not encourage us to click upon it. Couple ... Read the complete review

The banners for Urbia are not inviting at all, the ones that I have seen are lot of those "fake" banners that look like scroll-down boxes/check boxes that once you click on them, you realise it is a trick, there is no box, but a clever picture that directs you to their site. Of course, we have all seen these banners lurking about, usually they spout ridiculous things such as "your connection is slow - click here to boost it" or "win win win", and so with the suspicious banners in the same category, I would not touch this with a barge pole, let alone my cursor. I do however think that because the Urbia sponsors are all over ... Read the complete review
