Creatives types
STANDARD IMAGE/ .GIF
Standard image ads have the lowest CPM from all formats and that allows us to maximize impressions and reach within the given budget.
Moreover, standard ads can be served to feature phones and proxy browsers. This expands the potential to reach up to a maximum.
.GIF formats can be used instead of simple images.
Recommended formats: 320x50, 300x50, 300x100, 300x250, 320x250.
AWARENESS/ MAX REACH/ LOW CPM/ HIGH COVERAGE
INTERACTIVE BANNERS
Rich media lets to create complex ads that elicit strong user response.
Using HTML5 technology, the ads can include scratch, swipe, drag&drop, shake, and other interactions.
ENGAGEMENT/ INTERACTION/ MEMORABLE/ HTML5
DYNAMIC/ MOOD BANNERS
This solution allows serving your audience the right message at the right time, in the right context. Your brand message becomes more relevant to the people you’re targeting, so they can relate and connect with the brand more easily.
RELEVANT/ MAX REACH/ CONTEXTUAL
VIDEO ADS
Video entertains, educates, and inspires. Video is a great storyteller and keeps users glued to your content.
Video ads are served on in-banner and VAST placements.
Video ads are highly measurable with the detailed video metrics of watched length, view-through-rate, cost-per-view.
Videos are non-skippable up to 30s, so it’s recommended to have them short.
REACH/ GOOD CTR/ STORY-TELLING
NATIVE ADS
Native ads are based on flexible components that are inserted into different layouts, depending on the type of device the ad is served, how the content on the page appears, and more.
They are less intrusive and produces better results in terms of CTR.
IMPRESSIONS/ LESS INTRUSIVE/ SELECTIVE INVENTORY

Step 5: Write Call to action text. This text should be short and engaging, eg. Buy now. It will describe a call to action button for the destination URL.
Step 6: Save your video ad. The video dimensions might change after uploading in comparison with the original video because the system resizes the video based on the quality of the video and other factors. However, this doesn't have any impact on the performance of the campaigns.
Preview page
Introduction
Welcome to the world of hassle-free advertising! In this article, we explore an invaluable tool designed exclusively for our clients - a preview page that ensures your ads are flawlessly rendered. Say goodbye to guesswork and hello to efficiency as we delve into how this indispensable feature streamlines your workflow and guarantees a seamless ad experience for your audience.
What is a preview page?
An ad preview page is a powerful tool that allows advertisers and ad operations teams to preview how their ads will appear before they go live. This invaluable resource offers a real-time glimpse of the ad's rendering on different devices (mobile/desktop), ensuring its optimal display and functionality. By enabling users to catch potential issues and make necessary adjustments, an ad preview page significantly enhances the efficiency and effectiveness of advertising campaigns.
How/when to use the preview page?
The ad preview page serves as a crucial step in the advertising workflow, providing an opportunity for advertisers to verify the accuracy and effectiveness of their ad campaigns before launch. It is best utilized during the final stages of campaign creation, just before the campaign goes live. By accessing the preview page, users can view how their ads will appear across various devices.
Additionally, the preview page allows users to check for any visual or functional discrepancies, such as misplaced elements, broken links, or incorrect targeting settings, which might adversely impact the ad's performance. Moreover, advertisers can leverage the preview page to evaluate the ad's alignment with the brand's guidelines and messaging, guaranteeing brand consistency and professionalism.
How to find it?
Set up your campaign, and then navigate to the three dots on the right and click on them.
From the dropdown menu, select "Preview in browser."
Once you access the Eskimi ads preview page, you will be able to:
- Verify the proper rendering of all your ads.
- Preview your advertising in both desktop and mobile environments.
- Copy the ad text for reference or further use.
Additionally, the ad preview page allows you to:
- Check if your creative details adhere to IAB guidelines.
- Access external resources for learning and marketing purposes.
The versatility of the preview page extends to various ad types, including Banner (file banners, JavaScript, Rich Media), Video (VAST, IBV, remote VAST URI), Native ads, and Native video ads. It is also compatible with whitelabeled accounts.
Moreover, beyond ensuring proper rendering, the preview page serves as a troubleshooting tool by allowing you to verify if click and impression trackers are firing correctly. This functionality proves invaluable in identifying and resolving potential issues before the campaign goes live.
Conclusion
The preview page should not be mistaken for a tool that shows how ads will be displayed in specific environments, such as in-game scenarios. It does not generate screenshot mockups. Instead, its primary function is to allow advertisers to preview their ads before going live, facilitating troubleshooting of rendering issues, and reviewing all implemented trackers. Moreover, it offers a platform to ensure that the ads align with market standards and guidelines, enhancing the overall effectiveness of advertising campaigns.
