Summary

“Pop-up” with a graphic (sourced from your advertiser’s embed code) when a reader opens your page. Big and sure to be seen, this will be a valuable advertising spot for your site. The pop-up can be rate limited (the ad’s default displays once per page load every 5 minutes) and remember to size the pop-up to fit the size of the embed code.

Event Tracking

In addition to core event tracking, this ad format also tracks these events:

  • Official Views: The number of times the ad was presented to a user (not the number of times it served)

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="30417"]

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="30417"></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/30417.js?sa=1&"
        + (window.broadstreet ? 'init=0' : '')
        + (destination.indexOf('CLICK_URL_ESC') >= 0
        ? '' : '&destination=' + destination);
    bjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, bjs);
    }(document, 'script'));</script>
