ValueClick Tutorial

ValueClick options

Active Text
Displays "Link to" text underneath the banner. It may be ugly, but it might help you get more click-thrus.

Banner Size
Select the size banner you'd like.

Border
Puts a thin blue line around the banner.

Target New Window
If "Yes" opens advertiser's site in a new window. If "No" opens advertiser's site in current window.

Banner Subject
Allows you to select the subject matter of the banners to best suit your site. For instance, if you choose "Sports" then you will see banners for sports related sites. Targeting the banners to the subject of your website will help increase your click-thru rate.

Mode > Test
Use this option the first time you use the component only. Publish the site locally and go to a page containing the ValueClick component. Click on the banner that reads: "Click here to Register for ValueClick." You'll be directed to ValueClick's site where you register to become a member. Upon recieving a membership you'll get a Host Number which you'll need to activate the service.

Mode > Offline
Use this option when publishing offline. Component will use a placeholder for the banner. This is necessary since the banners are coming in from the ValueClick server.

Mode > Active
Once you have recieved your Host Number and are ready to publish your page(s) to the internet, select this option. A new field will apear below it titled "Host Number". Enter the Host Number you recieved from ValueClick here. You only need to register with ValueClick once. For any additional banners, the Host Number will be the same.

If you do not put in a host number you will not receive credit for your click-thrus.
