How come you're seeing certain ads over-and-over again?
Why are they working. and why do some display ads deserve to
be nothing more than bird cage lining.
Since we've been discussing sales copy "voices" lately, I'll

facts, rather than engaging and conversational
"recommendations", which is how they should read.

display ad.

like a non-biased third party came in and reviewed your
product, and then wrote up a quickie description of it.
