What are Vignette Banners?
Vignette banners are small banners that appear shortly after the user gets on your website, in the center of the page. They look like native banners, and include a small header and description, plus Close and Call to Action buttons.
This format is very similar to In-Page Push (IPP) and the famous Google Vignette, hence the name.
However, different from Google’s technology, this format doesn’t appear as the user is leaving the page. Instead, the user sees our Vignette when he gets on the website.
Moreover, our format is placed in the center of the display and can be set to appear with a 5, 30 seconds, or any other custom-set delay.
Here’s a sneak peek of how the PropellerAds Vignette appears on your user’s device:
As you can see from the example above, Vignettes feature a header, a small description, an image or icon, as well as Close and Call to Action buttons. Once the user sees your Vignette, he can interact with it, by following the call to action (button), or simply closing the banner.
Extremely easy, and user-friendly at the same time!
Another very nice feature that Vignettes bring is that they resemble classic native banners. Creating an even more pleasant User Experience (UX), and making your website more trustworthy.
