PadLeft and PadRight will only add padding it the string is shorter that then number of padding characters you want to add. Since Advertising is 11 characters long and you are padding to 10 characters the string won't change.

If you just want to add a prefix and suffix to a piece of string then you can do this:

string txt = "Advertising";

var padding = new string(' ', 10);
var newText = string.Concat(padding, txt, padding);
