Creative Format

Welcome Ads are comprised of three elements; the Publisher's logo, timer/skip feature and the object creative. All three elements are required. Details for each are as follows:
Publisher's Logo: Located in the upper left corner of ad space, the Publisher's logo reflects the specific UBM site user is visiting.
Timer and Skip Feature: The Welcome Ad timer is located above client creative in the upper right corner. Triggered upon loading, the user has the option of skipping or viewing the ad in its entirety. Clocking up to 15 seconds, the timer counts down each second before the user is automatically redirected to intended page.
Object Creative: The Welcome Ad is launched in the center of the page and is comprised of one click-thru which redirects users to a new window when clicked. If a user does not skip or click on the ad, they will be automatically redirected to the intended page.
