The Billboard (Beta)

Summary

This format works best on websites with a set background color — just target it to an empty zone or a popout zone. Deliver a large, powerful banner at the top of your website. This will be one of your most sought-after units. Showcase retail, real estate, firm branding, and more.

Setup / Inputs

These are the fields / inputs taken to generate this ad. In general, inputs are not required. That said, these inputs are how you customize the ad!

  • Banner Image: The image to be used as the banner. Use an image at least 1440px wide and 240px tall. For maximum impact a 2000x500 banner will do. Generally stick to 4x1 or 6x1 proportions.
    Default value:
    Default Value

  • Destination Link/URL: Where the user will be taken when they click on the ad
    Default value:
    #

  • Disappear When Scrollling Beyond: If yes, then the ad will disappear when you scroll away from it and it will not re-appear until the page is reloaded. If no they the ad will remain on the site no matter the scroll.
    Default value:
    False

  • Try to Auto-Set Background Color: If you are seeing text scroll over the billboard, try setting this to match your site's natural background color
    Default value:
    #ffffff (more on color values here)

  • Mixin: Mixin
    Default value:
    billboard-mixin

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="168209"]

  • 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="168209"></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/168209.js?sa=1&"
    + (window.broadstreet ? 'init=0' : '')
    + (destination.indexOf('CLICK_URL_ESC') >= 0
      ? '' : '&destination=' + destination);
  bjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, bjs);
}(document, 'script'));</script>
