EyeWonder has launched a new Push-down Expandable ad format, iMedia reports. The new format is available to advertisers on sites like the home pages for CNN.com and AOL.com.
In August, EyeWonder launched AdWonder, a platform that supports interactive banner ads and user-initiated video ads.
EyeWonder’s Push-down slides webpage content out of the way upon expansion and back upon contraction. The Push-down starts with expanded instant play video. On the user’s initial view per day, the Push-down Ad starts at 300×250 pixels and plays in that expanded state for 15 seconds, then contracts back to its standard 300×100 size while still playing. The format is available in both rich media and video ad versions.
