Video ads

Here is an example of a video ad:

only start and continue to play if in-view (on screen)
if user clicks to another tab or window, the video stops
charged on a Viewable Cost Per Mille (vCPM) basis – cost per 1,000 viewable impressions
a paid video impression is only counted if the ad has been 50% in-view for 2 seconds.
launch a campaign through our self-serve platform, MyDianomi, or your Account Manager
