Rising Stars - Billboard

Description:

This is an IAB standardized format  and it is composed by an ad expanded over the site contents.

10.

It works as a rollover expandable ad occupying the width of the page and through the rollover or click action, it displays the contents where a gallery of dynamic images is included, subject to be updated with XML plus youtube videos.

Example:

Implementation:

This format should be associated to the 'variable' type space where the  ad will be located. 

 

It is not necessary to create a particular space for this format. A variable space may be re-used where traditional ads usually run, and other Rich Media formats are shown alternatively.

The recommended type code is multiple or space Ajax V4. 


Metrics:

               •              Impression: To be counted when the ad is visualized  as collapsed in the first instance.

               •              Stay Time: To start counting if the user decides to expand the ad.

               •              Complete ad: To count upon the expanded ad animation completion.

               •              Expanding a Banner area: It is recorded every time the ad is expanded by the user.

               •              Collapsing a Banner area: It is recorded every time the ad is collapsed by the user.

Ad attributes:

               •              Size of the collapsed ad: The collapsed ad size may be indicated so as to be visualized correctly. As the ad always shows the size of the expanded banner, the lower part always remains as transparent when the banner is collapsed.

               •              Expansion direction: Downwards

               •              Z index: It allows to add depth to the ad. If any element on the site remains over the piece, the z-index should be increased for the piece to remain upwards.

               •              External counting URL: In this field, external impression counting urls may be added, if sent by the advertiser/agency/network. Up to 3 urls may be added.

               •              Flash background color:   Use the movie one/ Transparent / RGB Code: The color of the flash background may be selected from the interface.

               •              Additional variables to be sent to the ad: Flashvars may be added in this field.

               •              Ad delay: This option should be used only in specific cases in which the ad is not correctly visualized in Internet Explorer.

               •              Ad position:   Left  / Right /  Centered / None. The piece may be located within the space by any of these options.

               •              Custom Actions: Custom metrics may be added to measure specific events. More information here.
