CPC Multisize O&O
The CPC Multisize O&O format mixes IAB Standard display formats and IOL proprietary Native formats.
All URLs, redirects and tracking must be provided in https. Any NON-https materials will be excluded from delivery.
Send the creatives via mail to performance@italiaonline.it with a copy of the Italiaonline Sales Account at least 3 working days before publication. In the subject of the email, indicate the order ID and description (Ex: LB_012345 – Advertiser Name Product Name Month/Year); in the absence of the order ID, indicate the description (see details in the creativity policy).
Display IAB standard formats
The mix includes 7 standard IAB display formats, of which at least 3 are mandatory. Italiaonline recommends producing all of them or alternatively the minimum set of those that offer the best performance: 300×250, 728×90, 300×600.
For campaigns that involve the alternation of multiple creative subjects, it is necessary that all Display formats are managed in separate redirects for size and audience.
