Rich Media

WHAT ARE RICH MEDIA ADS

"Rich Media" is term used to describe enhanced technology used in Internet advertising for animation, video, special effects, or user interactively. This includes ad units such as Adobe Flash, rollovers, video and interstitials and more.

Overlays & Push-Downs
All overlays and push-downs must be approved by LIN Interactive from money and creative perspective.

All ads must include a close button that allows users to retract or close the expanded state of the ad
If the ad action (overlay or push-down) is enabled, it must close after 3 seconds if the user does not click to close.

There are three levels of Overlays & Push-Downs that can be offered:
    $: All ad actions must be user-initiated (click)
    $$: Ad actions may expand on user rollover
    $$$: Ad actions may expand on page load

WANE Reserves the right to review all Rich Media ads and accept or reject for any reason.
