Quantcast can host creatives on its own ad server on your behalf. These Quantcast Hosted creatives can be static images (e.g., JPG, GIF, PNG), or HTML5 content (in allowed format). See below for format definitions.
Upload your images and landing URLs in two ways:
- Download the Quantcast Hosted upload Excel template, fill in the required detail and upload it together with your image files (either individually, or compressed in a zip file)
- Upload your image files first, and then manually add the details for each creative
If any issues are detected during your upload, an error message will specify the reason.
Before finalizing your creative, you can review a summary of your upload and make edits as needed.
On this page you can:
- Add third-party trackers (if they were not already uploaded using the Quantcast Hosted upload Excel template)
- Edit or remove third-party trackers
- Edit creative names
- Add or edit landing URLs
- Configure creative-level device targeting
- Specify creative language
- Preview creatives
- Delete creatives
Click “Save” to finalize the creative upload. You will now be able to assign creatives to line items.
