Creative template for Google Ad Manager Baselayer

Baselayer - Google Ad Manager creative template

The "Baselayer" template is a custom creative solution for Google Ad Manager that allows you to create interactive and engaging ads that drive conversions. This template consists of two banners: a base banner that appears in the targeted ad unit's position, and a second banner that appears as a layer, or popup, over the web page's content when the user interacts with the base banner.

You can customize how the layer appears, choosing to render it as a full-screen banner or with a fixed size. The "Baselayer" template also includes a range of customizable features, such as the "show-layer" label text and style, the background overlay design when the layer is visible, and the closing button.

The "Baselayer" template is a powerful and flexible advertising solution that helps you create interactive and engaging ads that drive conversions. With its customizable features and ability to showcase additional information or content to your audience, the "Baselayer" template is a valuable tool in your marketing strategy.

Supported formats: all image formats, hosted HTML creatives and HTML (JavaScript) code/tags.

This template works with any Google Ad Manager version, including the free version. It can be served via size-defined ad units only.
