BANNER
ADVERTISEMENTS
General overview
Banner ads are placed throughout Sportruck.com on a revolving
schedule determined by the number of ads accepted. Ad
"views" are measured and compiled on a monthly basis,
with a copy of reports available on request.
Banner ads may include a link
direct to the advertiser's own website. This enables
the Sportruck.com browser to "click" to view your
independent, commercial website. If no company web site is
available, an optional web page can be purchased for extended
advertisement space.
Banner File Limitations:
Sportruck.com will accept no advertising banner
files larger than 15k, and we strongly urge all advertisers to use
files no larger than 7k to make sure they appear quickly and are
read by as many people as possible.
Alternate Banner Text:
Sportruck.com will display along with banner ads a
10-word tag line composed by the advertiser. Tag lines appear as
alternate text behind the ad banner. Due to space limitations
alternate text must be 10 words or less.
Banner Size Specifications: Banner
dimensions are: 468 pixels wide by 60 pixels high. Banner
will be hyper linked to an address of your choice (advertiser's
website or optional information page). Graphics should be in GIF,
Animated GIF, or JPEG format. All GIF
banners, animated or static, must be interlaced before sending.
Maximum 7 seconds, 3 loops only. Homepage
