Making your Video Creatives
The first thing in mind should be the quality, content, and length of the video. The quality of the video makes your creative look presentable and could keep the visitor entertained and easily draw his attention for that short period of time. What you also present in video matters and how you present it makes your creative rich and buys more time. After all this presentation and the great quality, the duration matters too. The human mind has a lesser time of concentration, especially on something it did not plan to watch or assimilate. So, you should be quick in presenting your creative. It should take at least 10-30 seconds on Facebook and at least 10-15 seconds on Instagram.
Despite emphasizing on the video’s quality and uniqueness, there must be well-arranged scenes. This will let the visitor know the purpose of the creative in a short amount of time. Try adding something unique to the video like good effects only where needed. By so doing, you will be creating a unique video to deserve numerous thumbs up.
Making your creative unique and bold is crucial for its success. It also needs good and more efficient texts, try placing them at the bottom of the video, so it does not shade some images. It will not be advisable to stretch the texts either should you make it small and unreadable. You will have to find a good background for the text making sure the background color and the font color are not similar for it will make the text unreadable. For example, having a light-colored image or video, apply a red background so it should be visible and easy to read. Let the colors of the image and the background opposite or almost opposite like white is to black.
Customization plays a big rule too in the quality of creatives and the traffic in general.
If you follow simple rules, Facebook will be your video’s companion. If you are on spy services for good quality videos, you will like to consider Google, Facebook, and Instagram. Easily replaced spy services could be best on Instagram and Facebook, looking at their numerous users all around the world. For a start, you need to be able to come up with an inspiring preview because, without a set auto play video, the users see the screensaver first. So, creating a good preview is essential. Creating a good preview is better and easier than working on a video because you will be presented with a variety of pictures to choose on and for every taste. This will be easily executed with the correct search for the sites with pictures suitable for you.
You should not forget to pay attention to trolling. This should be as important as having your good quality. With trolling, you can end up with a blocked account, and all your work will be for nothing.
You should consider Google, Instagram, Pinterest, and Facebook as your main source of finding your images. After taking note of these simple steps, you will not find difficulties in your creative.
What is “Customization”?

It gives you the ability to adopt creatives and place them in one ad group to any chosen placement. This will make it easy for you and save you a lot of time and hard work, and even resources.
