Details
This ad format shows as a fully responsive page overlay which takes 100% of the width and height of Landscape desktop screens. It is a 1600 x 900 banner which leads to a destination URL.
There is a small padding so that the Publisher’s site is still visible underneath.
It is preloaded and triggered when the user clicks on a link in the Publisher’s site and an impression is registered.
There is a Close button on the top right, if the user clicks on the Close button, they are redirected to the URL of the original click, in the original tab.
It will only show if there is an ad available.
Conversion tracking and retargeting will work as normal.
You can choose how often the ad zone shows based on Time or Clicks:
- If you choose Time, you can set how many times per minute/hour the ad can show.
- if you choose Clicks, you can set how many clicks cause the ad to appear for the first time, and how many cause it to appear after that.
Note: Selected Advertisers can use an iFrame for this ad format. If using an iFrame, your site must not have the X-Frame-Options field set to SAMEORIGIN.
