Ad Specs

  • Flexible size ads. We use the Internet Advertising Bureau (IAB) of Canada’s Flexible Size Ad specifications for the majority of our ads. The final display size of an ad (i.e. its pixel dimensions) will differ based on the viewing device.
  • Acceptable file formats. JPG, GIF and HTML5 formats are accepted for most ads (see below). Single frame ads should be supplied as JPGs. Animated ads can be supplied in GIF and HTML5 formats. Maximum file sizes and load times are provided below.
  • Animation is moving images or other rich experiences, usually without the use of video files. Length of animation must not exceed 15 seconds. No looping beyond 15 seconds is allowed. Animation is recommended to be part of subload. JavaScript used for animation must be executed as asynchronous load and CSS used must be inline. Flashing, high contrast, fast moving and bright colour animations are not acceptable.
  • Acceptable ad content. Ads must be directed at a general audience. Ads containing restricted content (e.g. tobacco or cannabis) or adult content will NOT be accepted. The appearance of any ad, offer or promotion is at the sole discretion of Brandon Tourism, whose decision is final.
  • Ad link. Advertisers must provide an external website to which each online ad will be linked.
  • Packages + Deals. Advertiser will be required to complete an online form to provide all details of their offer including a detailed description, applicable offer dates, expiry date, terms + conditions, and external website link (for additional offer details). Details may be edited for length and clarity.
