RBSE Class 12 English Advertisement Writing

1. Classified Advertisements (वर्गीकृत विज्ञापन) ।
वस्तुओं की बिक्री एवं सेवाओं को प्रदान करने के उद्देश्य से ये विज्ञापन Individuals के द्वारा ही दिए जाते हैं। ये संक्षिप्त तथा वर्णनात्मक होते हैं और Notice की तरह ही होते हैं। चूँकि ये विषयवस्तु के आधार पर ग्रुप में रखे जाते हैं, इसलिए इन्हें Classified Ads कहते हैं। 

2. Display Advertisement 
सामान्यतः ये विज्ञापन विनिर्मातों द्वारा अपने सामान/वस्तुओं की बिक्री को बढ़ावा देने के लिए तैयार किए जाते हैं। ये तीन प्रकार के होते हैं
(a) Local स्थानीय (थोक) 
(b) Retail (खुदरा/फुटकर) 
(c) National advertisements (राष्ट्रीय विज्ञापन)। 

Advertisements लिखते समय ध्यान देने योग्य तथ्य :
1. विज्ञापन लिखते समय उससे संबंधित विषय-वस्तु हमारे मस्तिष्क पटल पर संक्षेप में सुस्पष्ट होनी चाहिए। 
2. वाक्यांश, विराम चिह्नों आदि का प्रयोग सटीक रूप से हो ।
3. यदि आप अपना नाम, पता आदि गुप्त रखना चाहें तो Post Box No. का प्रयोग करें परन्तु इसके लिए अतिरिक्त शुल्क देना होता है।
4. इच्छुक व्यक्ति आपसे आसानी से सम्पर्क स्थापित कर सकें इसलिए अपना पता, टेलीफोन नं., ई-मेल आदि स्पष्ट लिखें ।
5. विज्ञापन में connectors, verbs, articles आदि का प्रयोग कम से कम ही करें। और यदि इनके बिना हमारा संदेश स्पष्ट हो जाता है तो इन्हें कदापि प्रयोग न करें।
6. विज्ञापन के सही प्रकाशन के लिए इसे अच्छे लेख में ही लिखें।
7. विज्ञापन को लिखते समय बहुत ही सरल, स्पष्ट व संक्षिप्त भाषा का प्रयोग करें। 
8. विज्ञापन लिखने के पश्चात् एक बार इसे पुनः पढ़ना चाहिए।
