Before you start

There are several ways to create creatives:

Getting Started

Go to the creative manager and navigate inside a creative set.

Creating a new creative

  • Click in the main bar on the Create button

  • Choose the type of creative

  • Fill in all necessary data

  • Click Save. After that you are redirected to the previous page and see the new creative in its creative set.

The creative types have some fields in common:

  • Name: The name field is not mandatory for image creatives, because the file name of the image will be used as default value. Apart from that, you might want to take some time to figure out a good name for your creative. To allow your partners to work effectively with your advertisers' creatives, make sure the name contains information about the purpose of the item. In case of image and html creatives, it is also recommendable to mention the size of the item. A good example of a creative name would be ‘Christmas campaign banner 120×60’.

  • Target URL: In the UI you will see that the target URL is pre-filled, based on the target URL that is set on the creative set. Of course you can overwrite it if you wish.

The necessary data is different for each creative type:

  • Hosted Image: An image file to upload from your computer. Tip: You can select multiple files on your computer to create multiple hosted creatives.

  • Remote Image: The URL of the image

  • Link: A text

  • HTML: The html source code.
    Please remember, that links within the HTML source code need to be replaced with a placeholder, in Order to generate tracking links. The placeholders #{ADMEDIA_LINK} or for an encoded target URL #{ADMEDIA_LINK_ENC}, will link to the defined target URL (from the field target URL).
