Ad Creative Unit Standards & Guidelines
Sound:
Sound effects of less than 1 second (such as a 'beep') are acceptable without user initiation.
MyWebGrocer reserves the right to prohibit such sound if deemed too intrusive. Any audio
over 1 second in length must be initiated by user interaction with appropriate text, icons or a
similar indicator. Once initiated, there must be a clear way to turn off the sound with
appropriate text, icons or a similar indicator. For streaming audio assets the client must supply
a Playlist in a MyWebGrocer approved format: M3U, RAM, or ASX.
Frequency Caps:
All placement level frequency caps must be set by MyWebGrocer and may not be set through
third party servers. MyWebGrocer may impose frequency caps on ads as needed and the cap
may vary by section. Frequency caps can also be applied to campaigns at advertiser request,
on a time based or placement basis. A maximum of one type of cap (session/hourly/weekly)
may be applied per campaign.

Deceptive Functionality:
All functionality visually indicated within ads must be working and not designed to deceive.
Non-functioning drop-down menus, radio buttons and text boxes will not be accepted. ‘Close’
or ‘Skip’ buttons must function as labeled and cannot link users to a new web site.
Click Interactions:
All click interactions that initiate the load of a new web page must open that web page in a
new browser window (except for ads in the E-commerce application which must open in the
same window). A click-thru may launch only one new browser window. Any click-thru included
with an ad that does not re-direct to a MyWebGrocer created landing page must take users to
the web site of the advertiser who purchased the ad space unless the advertiser has provided
written permission from another site to link to them with their advertising. Mouse-over
interaction cannot link a user to a new website.
Flash Guidelines
Back-Up File:
A default “background” .GIF must be submitted for visitors without (or who are blocking) Flash
or JavaScript. The back-up creative cannot be larger than 50KB in size and should be either a
JPEG or GIF.
Animation:
Within ad units defined by fixed in-page dimensions (like banners) uninitiated animation of any
form can run for a maximum of 15 seconds or 3 rotations without being re-initiated by the
user through a clearly labeled interaction with the ad. This includes animations, such as
flashing 'click here' buttons and small icons. Once re-initiated, there must be a clear way to
stop any in-unit animation by clicking on a label “Stop” or a stop button. MyWebGrocer
reserves the right to prohibit any ads if deemed too intrusive.
Version:
All Flash ad creative units must be delivered in at least the Flash Version 9 format. Flash 10
and AS3 are accepted as well.
Additional Specs:
Ad units cannot prompt the download of a plug-in, and must be coded to search for any
required plug-ins and display an alternate ad to those who don't have it.
ALL Flash ad units must have the background set to Transparent using WMODE parameters.
Target Window Commands:
In .SWF files clicking out of the retailer sites, the window identifier needs to be set to
“_blank”; however, when re-directing to a page within the retailer sites (such as recipe &
circular creative driving to an ad landing page and all e-commerce/keyword targeting
placements), the window identifier needs to be set to “_top” for all non-Peapod placements
and “frame4” for all Peapod placements. Refer to the click URLs spreadsheet or your MWG Ad
Ops contact for the specific target window commands needed by placement.
New Window – target=“_blank”
Same Window (non-Peapod placements) – target=“_top”
Same Window (Peapod placements) – target=“frame4”
Click Functionality
The click through URL cannot be hard coded into the .SWF. It should look like this ActionScript
assigned to a button (“_blank” will change to “_top” for creative that should open in the same
window and “frame4” for Peapod e-commerce/keyword targeting placements):
on (release) {
getURL (_level0.clickTag,"_blank")
}
Treat the clickTag variable as case sensitive. clickTAG, ClickTag, CLICKtag and clickTag are not
equivalents. The clickTag variable within the Flash file must exactly match clickTag syntax.
The full banner file must be clickable, which is done by enabling the hand cursor in all of the
hotspot and extending the hotspot to cover the full ad space, as the hand cursor indicates that
the ad is clickable.

normal webpage content (i.e. ad unit must have clearly
defined borders and not be confused with normal page
content). Ad must contain visible media controls (e.g.
Play, Pause, Mute, etc.)
Rich Media Guidelines
MyWebGrocer at this time does not accept the following Rich Media ads:
▪ Pre-roll, Post-roll, Intermediary Video
▪ Teardown
▪ Peel Down
MyWebGrocer does accept the following Rich Media ads within the Recipe & Circular (160x600,
728x90 and 300x250 sizes) platform only. Rich Media is not supported via email or ecommerce platforms.
▪ In-Banner Video
File Size:
The creative cannot be larger than 50KB in size; however, file sizes up to 100KB can be
supported upon request at an additional rate.
Ad Serving:
MyWebGrocer recommends the use of 3rd party ad serving for rich media and in-banner video
ads; however, in-banner video can be site served upon request through Doubleclick Studio, at
an additional cost.
The preferred rich media vendor is PointRoll or Doubleclick; however, other vendors are
accepted and have been used in the past, such as Motif, Eyeblaster (MediaMind) and
Eyewonder.
Creative Delivery:
To guarantee an on-time launch, creative assets are due 10 business days before launch for
campaigns that require site served video or creative revisions (target window command, etc.)
of any kind.
All final rich media tags/standard tags/creative assets are due 5 business days before launch
to allow for implementation and testing. Tags received closer than 5 business days prior to
launch are not guaranteed to launch on time and may prevent the campaign from delivering in
full. MyWebGrocer is not responsible for delayed launch due to late delivery of campaign
assets. Please refer to the Late Creative Guidelines and Testing Policy section of the Creative
Guidelines for additional detail.
Controls:
It is recommended that all rich media ads and in-banner video be host-initiated. Close “X”
controls are required and “expand” or “play” hot spots should limited to no more than 25% of
the ad dimensions.
For video, minimum player controls present should be Start/Stop and Volume/
On/Off/Softer/Louder. Other recommended buttons include Fast Forward/ Rewind, Pause and
others as needed. All buttons should be enabled throughout the entire video play.
Animation:
Uninitiated animation is allowed for standard Flash creative; however, all rich media action
must be user initiated, such as expansion or video play. Animation can run for a maximum of
30 seconds or 3 rotations without being re-initiated by the user through a clearly labeled
interaction with the ad. This includes animations, such as flashing 'click here' buttons and
small icons. Once re-initiated, there must be a clear way to stop any in-unit animation by
clicking on a label “Stop”, “X” or a stop button. MyWebGrocer reserves the right to prohibit any
ads if deemed too intrusive.
Video should also adhere to the 30 second recommended length, although longer formats can
be accommodated upon request.
Target Window Command:
In .SWF or .FLV files clicking out of the retailer sites, the window identifier needs to be set to
“_blank”; however, when re-directing to a MyWebGrocer hosted “add to list” ad landing page,
the window identifier needs to be set to “_top” to allow a same window click through. Refer to
the click URLs spreadsheet or your MWG Ad Ops contact for the specific target window
commands needed by placement.
New Window – target=“_blank”
Same Window – target=“_top”
Billing:
MyWebGrocer does not have negotiated rates with any 3rd party Rich Media vendor;
therefore, all rich media fees will be covered by the advertiser. Additionally, Doubleclick
charges MyWebGrocer $0.50 per thousand impressions delivered for rich media ad serving.
This surcharge will be passed along to the advertiser.
MyWebGrocer can provide rich media design, production and QA/ trafficking services to
advertisers at an additional cost. Please contact your sales representative for more details or
to request a quote for creative services.
Third-Party Serving & Tracking Guidelines
Most placements can support third party ad serving, but there are some restrictions on the
types of third party serving tags and third party tracking tags that MyWebGrocer can accept,
based on site and data restrictions. See below for MyWebGrocer’s third party serving and
tracking guidelines.

▪ Data (all kinds)
Targeting Fees
Third Party Serving:
MyWebGrocer utilizes Google DoubleClick tools to serve ads, and is able to accept third-party
ad tags from preferred vendors. Any creative running on third-party tags must be approved by
MyWebGrocer prior to campaign launch and comply with all creative and platform policies.
Third-party ad tags may be used solely to verify fulfillment of the I/O. If the Advertiser’s ad
server is IAB/AAAA compliant and reporting is made available to MyWebGrocer, it will be used
as Controlling Measurement when tags are utilized.
Preferred third-party servers:
Doubleclick
▪ MediaMind
Pointroll
MyWebGrocer utilizes unique click through URLs to re-direct users within their preferred store.
Third-party ad servers must be able to support click URLs containing macros (ex.
http://%p;sdn=!), to provide session specific redirect functionality, such as a banner click-thru
to a branded “add to list” ad landing page within a user’s preferred retailer. Please contact
clientservices@mywebgrocer.com to determine if a 3rd party ad server not included in the
above list of preferred vendors is accepted.
3rd Party Tracking:
Ads may be 3rd party tracked using 1x1 transparent pixels; however, support of 1x1 pixels
within some display formats, like email banners, is limited. Email service providers can strip
excess tracking code, preventing fully functional ad serving; therefore, third party tracking in
email is limited to click tracking only. Impression tracking via 1x1 pixels is supported when
enabled through the Google Doubleclick tools.
Note: If advertiser plans on sending 1x1 tracking tags and utilizing an internal “add to list” or
“add to cart” ad landing page click through, MWG Ad Ops will send advertiser the unique click
through URLs to implement.
Cookies, Pixels, and Data Repurposing:
Third-party ad serving and tracking is permitted only to the extent needed to confirm I/O
fulfillment of impressions and clicks. Additional tracking elements such as those used for ad
verification and demographic data collection will be permitted only on a case-by-case basis.
MyWebGrocer is extremely sensitive to the needs of our retailer partners regarding customer
privacy. As such, the use of tracking tags for retargeting, user harvesting, or data gathering
not related to the I/O is strictly forbidden. Ads found running unauthorized tags or malicious
code will be removed from the site immediately.
