Hungry For Hits knowledgebase: Add a square banner

Add a square banner

Square banners are displayed on various pages in the member area in Hungry For Hits and on prize pages in surf, but the admin also advertises them on the Food Game prize pages which display in over 300 other traffic exchanges. In this article, we will explain how you add square banners that your want to advertise in Hungry For Hits, and how to assign square banner ad impressions (square banner views) to them. Free members can add 5 square banners, Silver members can add 15 square banners, Gold members can add 25 square banners and Super advertisers have unlimited advertising to 25 square banners. To add a square banner, follow these simple steps:

1. Click the My Ads page under the Advertising menu and then click the "Square banner ads" button on the top of the page.
2. In the "Image URL" field, put the image url of the banner you want to advertise, a 125x125 picture link. Right click the image of the square banner you want to advertise, and copy the image url for this. All links must use HTTPS.
3. In the "Target URL" field, fill in where you want visitors to go when they click your square banner, most likely a referral link.
4. In the "Auto assign per hour" field, select if you want to automatic ally assign a certain number of impressions from your unassigned square banner ad impression balance each hour, or leave at 0.
5. Click "Add square banner ad" to add your square banner. You can also click the "Preview" button to see what it looks like, before clicking the Add button.

If the square banner isn't visible on the page after you have added it, no one else would see it either and there is most likely some sort of error with it. First, copy the picture url you added and open it in a new window to see if it is displaying a picture - it should. Most commonly, the picture link is not correct, or the ref link and picture link should switch places.

To have your square banner display, you must assign square banner ad impressions to it. You can do it manually, by entering how many impressions you want to assign in the "Assigned impressions" field and updating by clicking the green plus sign button next to it, or selecting your square banner ad by checking the field in the column left of your ad and using the assign option buttons.

We also have the automatic assign feature for square banners that takes a number of unassigned square banner ad impressions every hour and assign them to your square banner. To set up automatic assign to an existing square banner, or to edit the amount, click the "Edit" button next to your square banner and select how many impressions you want to assign to your square banner each hour.

You can also convert website credits gathered in surf to square banner ad impressions. The conversion area is located on the top of the page, next to your impression balance. It's only possible to convert credits to impressions, not the other way around. You will get 10 square banner impressions per 1 credit.

Square banner advertising is a "cheaper" way to advertise. You can earn square banner ad impressions as prizes while viewing ads, surfing, and in daily promo codes.
