Banner Ad Info
Want to drive more traffic to your website? Want to announce a live show / new resin / special sales event / etc.? The benefits of placing a banner ad on the MHC include:
- Visibility: The MHC is one of the most popular model horse web sites around. There is plenty of traffic at all hours of the day, ensuring that your ad will get maximum visibility.
- Display Statistics: Your ad will go into rotation with other banner ads hosted on the MHC. The number of times your ad has been displayed will be available in your private Vendor area.
- Hit Statistics: Any time someone clicks on your ad to visit your website, the time and date will be logged. This information will be available in your private Vendor area.
Ad Images
Banner Ad images must comply with the AD TOPICS and PHOTOS & IMAGES sections of the Vendor User Agreement. Additional requirements include:
- Image Size
Image sizes must be no larger than 468 pixels wide by 60 pixels in height. - File Types
Files must be in .GIF, .PNG, or .JPG file formats. Flash and other file formats are not allowed. - File Behavior
Files must stay within the boundaries of the specified dimensions. Files must not overflow out of that space or spawn new windows including pop-ups and pop-unders. Animations, if used, should be tasteful and discrete (trust me, there is nothing better to turn away potential customers than annoying whirligigs that flash and whiz around). :^) - Image Creation
Images must be provided by you, or graphic design services can be provided through separate arrangements with:
