HTML or Static BannersGraphical ads Display ads are often available in many standard shapes and sizes, including: banners, leader boards, skyscrapers, large boxes.

Rich Media AdsRich media ads are essentially image ads that have interactive elements, animations, or other aspects that can change depending on who is looking at the ad and how they interact with the ad.

InterstitialsAn interstitial ad is a full-page ad that appears before the actual webpage.

Flash/DHTML AdsThese kinds of ads incorporate Flash animation or other motion graphics. Ads may be animated display ads in more traditional shapes and sizes, or, as of late, they can be sophisticated ads that function similarly to pop-up ads but with much deeper integration into the overall design of the site.

About Display: Typical Pricing Models

How Ads Are BoughtDirect Sales: Advertisers work closely with publishers to define everything from the creative look and feel to the size and placement on the page.

Run-of-Site / Remnant: Advertisers purchase any available inventory on a publisher’s site that hasn’t already been sold.

Ad Exchanges:Ad exchanges are companies that broker online advertising by bringing advertising buyers and website publishers together to participate in auctions for ad space

Ad Networks:Ad networks ultimately serve as the sales representatives for the websites that are part of the network
