The Psychology of Color and Internet Marketing
By Pam Renovato
As Internet marketers it is imperative that we constantly look for ways to make a good
impression on our viewers. Your business depends on it. We only have a short amount of time,
before a decision on whether or not we are professionals will be made. We must make good use
of this time.
The first instant we have at presenting ourselves to viewers is our web page, which brings us to
the importance of good design and proper color choices. First impressions are very important.
We must make the best of them because we are only allowed one. Remember this is your
storefront, and you must treat it respectfully.
While content, customer service, a niche in your market, and a high subscriber list, are crucial to
your life on the Internet. Good web page design and proper color choices are crucial as well. It is
a good part of the reason why viewers bother to look over your content at all. Regardless of how
incredible your content may be, you need to welcome them and make them feel at home, while
they are there. Or, they will leave.
Did you know you control the mood of your visitors by using certain color choices? This is a
simple concept that is very often ignored. Why? Human emotions are very often triggered by
color. You need to know which colors trigger which emotions. Color can make the difference
between buying and selling, if used correctly. You need to choose the right color combinations
for your site and product. Everything we buy, eat, wear, and all of the things that take up space
where we live, work or play, all have colors. These colors provide a psychological and emotional
response in everyone. These responses reflect who we are and the things that we think and feel.
Color is the first thing we notice and the last thing we forget. If used properly it can be a
powerful tool. It is the doorway to our deepest thoughts and feelings, and desires. This is an issue
worth discussing.
Which colors should you use? Well, it is always best to keep your main content on a white
background. This is easier on the eyes and will provide a sense of professionalism. The color
white triggers emotions such as: purity, peace, and perfection.
While white is an important color, you will probably want to complement your site with other
colors as well. After all, there is creativity in each and every one of us. There is a huge color
spectrum for us to choose from. Which colors are best!
Here are a few ideas to help you.
Red colors can stimulate warmth, hunger, and excitement. Cooler colors such as green and blues,
enhance calm and content feelings. Dark colors make objects seem heavier, while light colors
make them seem lighter. Yellow may reflect a lack of worry while black, a troubled state. Of
course not all colors mean the same things to all people. Yellow may sometimes mean cheap,
green may mean money or greed, black may mean elegance or death.

Color has become a science and it is a much-needed weapon as part of your marketing arsenal.
You will need to take great thought in choosing color as it will identify you, because once a color
is owned it is associated with you and your company. I am sure you have noticed this with
examples such as Coca Cola red, Tide orange, and John Deere Green. It is just as important to
your identity as your logo. If a shape provides a symbol, be aware that color does the same.
Think carefully when choosing colors! Applying a certain color to your product is just plain
logic. For example: In stores, colors identify flavors, brands, and products: Green in a cleaner
says pine- in a mouthwash says mint, blue very often means strong mint - icy cool. Clear means
additive free. Red found in strawberries, cherries, and apples is very appealing. You would never
choose gray for laundry detergent because you don t want gray clothes - you want brightly
colored clothes. Blue, very unappetizing on a dinner plate, is much more successful as a dinner
plate.
Because they strongly affect mood, grays and browns seem somber and often depressing. But
they can take on a more cheerful attitude with complements of red. No matter how you use them
they suggest weight, or something heavy. This would provide your visitors with a feeling of
stableness and strength. Emotions like this will help your visitors to associate your site with
solidity and confidence. Other colors such as burgundy, oyster, beige, and blues will also provide
a feeling of solidity. The list goes on and on.
Don t over look the issue of color with your business. Believe me it matters!
You see, once we lived in a black and white world. TV was black, printed publications were
predominantly black. All of that changed in the 60 s and has created a chain reaction that holds
true today. Color is the most important attention getter. As humans, we bring our own tastes to
the world.
How do we choose which color to be identified with? What is the right color? Sometimes there is
no right answer, you just have to take your best shot. But the number one choice of Corporate
America is still blue.
