Sidebar Ad

Understanding and using the Sidebar "Embed Method Type" option when getting your creative tag.

The sidebar ad embed method creates a floating ad that can be set to display on the left or right of the screen. Here is an example of an UpRival sidebar ad:

There are options to set which side the ad comes in from (the left or the right), settings for the top margin, and settings for the left (or right) margin. There are also options for setting the amount of time to delay the ad (show after), which is measured in milliseconds, and there are options for setting the amount of time to automatically hide the ad. Web page visitors can also manually close the sidebar by clicking the X button.

To create a sidebar ad, simply create your placement and ad as normal, and then select the desired embed method from the drop-down menu labeled “Embed Method Types”. This menu is found by clicking the “Get HTML Tag” button.
