Flex Ads Studio
"Flex Ads" can now be one of your promotion superpowers!
Now, you can control your ads from start to finish, making updates as often as you like.
Fundamentally, we utilize Google Slides to allow you to share your digital media with us, so it may be posted to HomeTownTV ("HTTV") quickly and efficiently.
If you have basic familiarity with any number of common, office software, presentation tools -- then Google Slides should prove intuitive and easy to use.
Whether as a bush up or primer, please feel free to see this brief tutorial as needed.
Please just use the standard dimensions (Google Slide defaults), and follow the steps detailed in the DETAILED OVERVIEW section following this.
Do remember, that your Banner Ad service includes:
A single slide banner to appear broadly on the site (in rotation with others).
...and as well, a complimentary multi-slide banner to appear in your chosen sub-Directory category (i.e., Real Estate, Lawyers, Restaurants, etc.) You can make a more extensive presentation of slides here, providing viewers with more information. Consider, for example, a
realtor exhibiting multiple properties, one to a slide; and then, changing those slides whenever a property is added or sold.
Moreover, you can create any hyperlinks (within your Banner Ad (Google Slide) ), directing viewers to your website, social media, or otherwise at your discretion.

detailed Overview
For best results, we encourage use of a free Google account, through which you can then create and share materials (i.e., graphics, videos, etc.) with TV Goldenrod.
Primarily, HTTV uses two (2) media formats: (A.) Banner Ad and (B.) Video.
These may appear in different absolute sizes from one page to another, but generally conform to a 16:9 widescreen layout.
Suited to these formats, HTTV accepts the following submission types for Banner Ad promotions:
(1) prepared graphics -- [fitted to a Google Slide of default dimensions: (16:9); 10" x 5.63"]
[ANY number of hyperlinks within the display are permitted.]
(2) GIFs -- [kept to 5 seconds; also fitted to a Google Slide of default dimensions (16:9); 10" x 5.63"]
Please convey to us any such submissions as follows:
> 'Banner Ad' submissions should be made as Google Slides, shared with us as a folder of or file(s) at: studio.httv@gmail.com. -- Please make sure we are granted full editing authority of the file(s).
[NOTE: You may make updates to your Banner Ad (Google Slide) at any time. Though all content remains subject to ongoing review, updates to banners in the Directory areas typically update in real-time. However, as a general rule, all new and updated content is typically reviewed within 72 hours.]
