how to create your ads and landing pages? (4)

what tools do most people use to create their ads and landing pages?
photoshop and dreamweaver?

can you outsource/hire someone to do them? is it too expensive?
can i just rip and use the same ads and landing pages? is it ok or i'm going to get in trouble?

i don't have great design skills so trying to create professional looking banners using photoshop is something i'd rather not do.
Do simple and ugly ads work?

does anyone know about this software called banner design studio? or bannersnack?

i dont want to use wordpress for my landing pages because it isn't fast. not sure about unbounce/leadpages.
anyone here use adobe muse?

Either Photoshop or Muse are the standard tools for LPs.

Simple and ugly works EXTREMELY well, depending on where you're advertising. 99% of the time you don't need to be a professional designer to be a successful AMer.

Bannersnack and Banner Design Studio - I wouldn't bother. Just get Photoshop and run through a few tutorials.

Adobe Muse is excellent, and probably the best choice for non-technical affiliates. However, be aware you'll need to do a few things to your landers to make them work on mobile, if you choose to use it.

You can outsource, and it's not too expensive, but the costs can mount if you're testing a lot.
