Overview

Superking Gutters are the premium variety of Gutter treatments with extended screen real estate accessible for higher creative impact and ad effectiveness. Gutter images are displayed outside of the site’s boundaries, providing a strong presence for your marketing messages and are shown to users with adequate screen resolution and screen real-estate. Background colours can be changed to match your brand in some instances and the gutters have a click-through to your website.

Product Rules

• Clickable area is restricted to the gutter image’s dimension.
• Branding and text should be kept within 145px of the site content so that it is visible for users with lower resolution screens.
• Gutter images must include a logo or other form of client identification. The images must be clearly expressing their nature as advertisement in order not to deceive users.
• Gutters require pre-approval.
• Images are static, animation is not allowed.
• Typically the top of Gutter Images are positioned to the top of the content area which in some cases is underneath the site navigation
• The left and right sides should be designed in such a way as to blend with the background colour†. At least a 5px fade around the edges is recommended, the exact treatment should be led by the creative on hand.
• Some users may have screen resolutions too narrow to display the gutter area. In these cases the images will be removed from the page.
• This product is only supported on desktop devices!
• Where can this run? See the Site Matrix
