Summary
Create a video ad from a YouTube URL, Vimeo URL, or URL to a raw video file. In some cases (such as Instagram), URLs to posts with videos may be entered. You may also supply text, a photo, and logo.
Event Tracking

Embed An Example In Your Media Kit
Customers who wish to embed the example on some "Media Kit" page on their website can do so in one of two ways:
-
Option 1: If you have Wordpress and the Broadstreet plugin, you can use this shortcode anywhere in any post to render the example.
[broadstreet ad="103347"]
-
Option 2: If you do not have Wordpress, or choose not install the Broadstreet plugin, you can embed this javascript code snippet into your post:
<div street-address="103347"></div><script> (function(d, s) { // CLICK MACRO AND CONFIGURATION SECTION var destination = '%%CLICK_URL_ESC%%'; // DO NOT EDIT BELOW THIS LINE var js, bjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0]; js = d.createElement(s); js.async = true; js.src = "//ad.broadstreetads.com/display/103347.js?sa=1&" + (window.broadstreet ? 'init=0' : '') + (destination.indexOf('CLICK_URL_ESC') >= 0 ? '' : '&destination=' + destination); bjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, bjs); }(document, 'script'));</script>
