Advertising Guidelines

  • DealBreaker.com accepts GIF, JPEG, Rich Media & third party served ads
  • 30-second and 4 loop max for any animation
  • Any audio must be user-initiated, defined as a click and not a mouseover, and clearly labeled with “Play” and “Stop” controls.
  • Flash
    • All locally served Flash ads need to have a clicktag encoded rather than a hard coded click-thru command. The following code needs to be manually added to the .swf file before the ad is sent to DealBreaker. Code must be added to a button on the outside layer (NOT a movie clip):
      on(release) { getURL(clickTAG,”_blank”); }
  • A default gif must be submitted for visitors without Flash or JavaScript
  • Must send click thru url to us in email (since it won’t be embedded in the flash file)
  • Lead time is 3 business days for non-rich media and 7 business days for rich media

One of Fortune's five "Must-reads in a Web 2.0 world"

"A 'business tabloid,' DealBreaker posts a steady and amusing mix of financial world fodder. There's plenty of commentary on the markets, but along with a healthy dose of gossip. It's the place to get analysis on whether commodity prices have hit their peak and learn the details of Steve Schwartzman's latest birthday celebration."
