Implementation Notes
& Best Practices

  1. For times when the user's browser does not support creative functionality (i.e. Flash™, Standard & Complex HTML5), provide a standard backup image file.

  2. Ads are required to contain sufficient brand notification. I.e. Banners should include advertiser's brand name or logo in the ads, so that users know which website they will be led to once an ad is clicked.

  3. Landing page should include a privacy policy to avoid creative rejections by premium publishers.

  4. Landing page must be crawlable. (To allow Google crawler on your page, you can add User-Agent: AdsBot-Google to your domain's robots.txt)
