August 13th, 2009 | Published in Google Adwords
Creating display ads that look truly professional is hard work. Last year, we launched Display Ad Builder to help you easily design display ad campaigns. Since then, we've provided advertisers in over 40 countries with more than 90 templates to streamline the design process.
Today, we have introduced a new set of "Elegant" ad templates in the "General" category of Display Ad Builder that make it even easier to create high quality display ads. These templates have ready-made buttons and backgrounds that give each ad a cohesive look and feel. More specifically, the backgrounds use subtle gradients and the new buttons have unique shapes, icons and color treatments. The goal of these ads is to make it as easy as possible to create high-quality ads in a matter of seconds without having to use complex graphics software. Here are a few examples:
