After determining which combination produced the best results additional ad sizes were created. Eventually localized versions for ten different geo-tarted audiences as well. Versions were also created to blend in with specific web site placements so they didn't stand out as being ads too much.

Yahoo! Lender Search “Lenders Direct” Campaign
Banner Ads with Scrolling Lender Logos
Project Description: For this campaign I integrated lender logos into Flash animated ads to provide insight who the lenders are and begin to build confidence in potential customers minds before they apply for home financing. As part of this test, the logos either scrolled left to right, bottom to top, or zoomed from small to large along with style and messaging variations. The landing page look and feel borrowed from the style of the Yahoo! Travel channel and other online properties at the time to keep consistent with the Yahoo brand in general.
