Tips and Tricks
- Placement Matters: Use the Action Banner block near the top of the page or between sections where users are likely to take action.
- Don’t Overuse It: Action Banners are impactful but lose their effectiveness if overused. Reserve them for your most critical calls to actions or announcements.
- Choose High-Quality Images: Select relevant, high-quality media using images that provide additional context. Avoid using graphics, logos, branding, or images of text
- Consider the Grand Hero Block: Unlike the Action Banner block, the Grand Hero includes the option to use a video backdrop, in addition to different styling options. If you intend to create a call to action in the Banner region of your page, you may want to consider the Grand Hero block.
