Tips to improve your ad performance

  • Provide 2 or more variations of the ad.
  • Make sure to provide at least one of a headline or call to action.
  • Logo-only images can work but they work best if the brand is well-known to devs.
  • Product images, diagrams, or infographic-style images work very well.
  • Make sure any text in the image is visible and legible. We recommend using at most 5-7 words to ensure they are readable.
