AD PODS AND ROTATION

Rotation versus Ad Pods

Rotation picks one commercial for an ad request; an Ad Pod requests a sequence of commercials.

What you need to know

Rotation picks one commercial for an ad request; an Ad Pod requests a sequence of commercials.

Step by step

  1. Choose Rotating Ads if you want to distribute calls among several commercials.
  2. Create a rotation, add active commercials and set selection weights.
  3. Copy the rotation VAST tag.
  4. Choose Ad Pods instead if you need commercials to run back-to-back.
  5. Test each configuration with the same player your visitors use.

Tips and common mistakes

  • Weights influence selection probability; they are not guaranteed delivery quotas.
  • An ad rotation tag generally returns one ad, not an entire sequence.
