Additional Spec Considerations
Animation:
- Naylor recommends a maximum of 15-18 frames per second, and a maximum animation length of 30 seconds
Click tags:
- Click tags should be set up in the following format: clickTag
- Ads serving within an iFrame should open in a new window when clicked
Conversion pixels:
- Conversion pixels can be placed on your site and associated with a targeted advertising campaign to help track and report on what users do on your website after they click on your ad. This pixel only has to be placed once per advertiser
Creative rotations:
- Programmatic advertisements are configured to rotate evenly and subsequently optimize based on the best-performing ad sizes. Upon request, we can accommodate serving multiple pieces of creative artwork simultaneously; however, this setup may not follow a fixed rotation schedule
- A/B testing can be applied to any campaign to compare performance; however, it must be requested and configured prior to the campaign’s launch
Tracking tags & reporting:
- While we can accommodate the use of 3rd party tags on targeted advertising campaigns running through our ad trafficking platform for the purpose of impression and click tracking visibility, we base all campaign performance (including impressions and clicks) by what is reported in our platform. Our ad trafficking platform proactively filters invalid traffic from its reporting. We cannot abide by individual traffic requirements set by 3rd party tag providers for any served ad campaigns, and will not monitor campaign performance by external platforms outside of our ad server
