Colors & Size
Choosing the right color for the ad themes is very important. Doing this correctly is an art in itself. Even small differences in color choice can make a difference. In fact, there have been cases where the same add was modified with slightly different colors and the result was almost instantaneous. The shape and size also seem to make a difference. Generally, ads that are wider as opposed to taller, tend to do better. Overall, size wise, too big or too small are both bad.
