About Banner Ads

Banner ads come in various shapes and sizes to fit our websites. Banners can be simple "billboards" with no animation, or they can include animation and/or video.

Flash (Animated) Banner Ads

Flash banners use smooth animation and movement to catch the online visitor's attention. Based on the size and shape of the banner used, the creative possibilities are endless.
View Flash Banner Ad Examples using animation.

Rich Media (Interactive, Animated) Banners

Banner ads that expand, float, corner peel, or play video are examples of rich media. View our rich media examples below.

Rich media banners can expand out a panel with more information — and more animation — without having to click that banner and wait for another web page to load. The expandable panel can even include a form, such as for a contest or survey.

Rich Media also allows you to present video. They can see the video begin playing automatically on certain banners, or expand out with the rollover of their mouse.

Rich media is a great way to promote events, grand openings, sales, concerts and specials. More popular than ever, these banners are highly animated, floating, eye-catching ads that link to your Web site, printable page or coupon offer.
