Delivery
All text and GIF or JPEG banners must be received at least 3
business days prior to placement. Rich media ads require 7 business days for
testing and re-coding.
Timeframes subject to change based on any technical
difficulties.
GIF and JPEG banners must be delivered to AboutJobs.com via
email. When sending via e-mail, please specify if the ad has been compressed or
encoded in any way. Rich media/HTML must be delivered as zipped archives.
A specific URL link (click-through destination) must be
included with every banner, along with a banner name for reporting purposes.
Please provide 25 characters of alt text if necessary.
AboutJobs.com
reserves the right to reject any ad based on content or images contained
in the banner.
Rich Media
We require 7 business days to test and re-code rich media to
work with our Real Media ad servers. All rich media ads must be delivered in
full working order and must work on all browsers and all platforms. Audio can
not play automatically; it must be user-initiated by clicking.
We can serve rich media ads via third party, however
re-coding is often necessary in order to track click-throughs. Because third
party rich media ads can slow down the rendering of our pages, we would prefer
standard third party image ads if the ad doesn't require custom HTML.
All rich media ads should be delivered in full working
order, include necessary components and be capable of being displayed on all
browsers and all platforms. If the browser is incapable of showing the rich
media ad, a backup animated GIF should be shown instead.
In addition to the
General Policies:
Script must be entirely self-contained in the ad unit (no
code may be placed in the head or body of our site pages)
If a banner requires a plugin, advertisers must test in all
versions of the plugin currently available. Advertisers must test banners to
function cross-platform in 3.0, 4.0 and 5.0 browsers -- in Netscape, Internet
Explorer and AOL browser versions.
Rich media/HTML files must be delivered in zipped archives.
HTML
HTML code must be contained within a single TABLE tag. Nested tables are not
allowed. All table cells must have width attributes. All images must have
height and width attributes. Only 2 images max. HTML files must be delivered in
zipped archives.
Shockwave/Flash
Not all browsers are Shockwave/Flash capable. Advertisers must provide a backup
GIF or JPEG image with all Shockwave/Flash ads. Advertisers must also provide
code that recognizes automatically whether the Shockwave/Flash plug-in is
installed, and display the appropriate media. Advertisers must also provide
.Fla file.
