Top Five Most Profitable Color
Combinations Used In Cover Design!
by Ovi Dogar
"Two days ago, an old man stopped me on the street and asked
me who my stylist is.
I was surprised at first by the situation. But after a
couple of seconds, my answer was:
- ""I don’t have a stylist. I dress myself!""
That's when it occurred to me that there are many people
that match their clothes colors in a bad way. And guess
what: the same thing is happening with many e-book covers
that are on the internet today.
There are some covers so bad that you want to live a certain
web page the very moment you see the cover.
I know you don't want to end up with a cover like that so
here is the Absolute Top Five Most Profitable Color
Combinations.
5. Red - black - white

Red and black combined with white create a nice impact to
the eye. These covers usually jump into the visitor's eyes
through their simplicity. Gradients of red and grey can turn
out pretty profitable also.
4. Black - white - gold

This is another killer combination. The simplicity of black
combined with the richness of gold helps you create a cover
that makes people turn their heads just to see it. Usually
these colors are ideal for conservatory institutions that
deal a lot with money.
3. Red - white - blue

You should take good care not to have red-blue bordering
areas, or - if you do, one of the colors should be really
dark while the other is lighten. Blue and white is another
good combination that derives from this one. It is used more
and more in the internet marketing - new technologies field
because of the trustiness the blue color implies.
2. Red - orange - green
Sample: http://www.absolutecovers.com/5/show.php?n=156
Orange seems to be a color preferred by the customers.
Psychologically speaking, orange gives a sense of
affordability and combined with red, which is a strong
motivator, subconsciously influence your leads to act. The
green color brings in a little freshness into the picture so
it fits well for ecological and sport projects.
1. Red - orange - blue
Sample: http://www.absolutecovers.com/5/show.php?n=194
Based on numerous split tests and feedback from my
customers, the absolute combination was formed from red,
orange and blue - or, to be more specific: dark blue. :)
The blue color adds the touch of confidence - needed by each
of us before we make the buying decision - to the red-orange
combination.
This being said, I wish you much success with your venture
and be aware next time you hire a cover designer."
