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

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."
