Observe this
• Billboards are usually placed at traffic signals• Where ever there is scope for traffic to stop• Dead ends or hair-pin bends.• Anywhere where people are not in a focused
mode of attention.

So have people “decided” not to notice banners?

No… its just that they don’t notice them until their task at hand is complete.

Now what do we do??
![Page 23: Banner Blindness](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022051013/54747d06b4af9fcd0a8b5690/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)

Now what do we do??
• Weave banners in the interaction rather than using the blast gun method
• Identify logical and intermediate task breaks in your website.
• Preview the banner during an intermediate task• Present the banner when task complete.• Ensure the banner is relevant to the context of
the information on the website.
