IMPORTANT INFORMATION
• Provide linking URL, Alt text and rotation instructions
for each ad unit. All artwork must be accompanied
by alternative text. Alt text should be no more than
50 characters (spaces included).
• All ads, including third-party ads, MUST be tested for
approval.
• Longer lead-times are required for copy rotations of
more than five ads per month.
• Shockwave Flash banners must be created using the
clickTag format.
• HTML sniffer code must be implemented in order to
detect whether a user’s browser is capable of
displaying the Shockwave Flash file. A back-up
banner should be displayed if the user cannot accept
Shockwave Flash. VERYBEST.COM will not
approve HTML sniffer codes, which prompt the user to
download a plug-in.
A back-up banner is required for all rich media ads.
• In order to track clicks on forms, “method=get” must
be used. (Forms with “method=post” can run through
DART, however clicks cannot be tracked.)
