• We recommend a frequency capping of one hour.
• The video ad should stop when clicked and resume when clicked again.
• The video should stop when the viewer leaves the page where the ad zone is placed.
• Autoplay video is not accepted, the ads should load only when the visitor clicks play on the video. This is to comply with the industry standards here
• On mobile device implementation, the visitor should be kept on the browser after they click play and the video ads must not open directly on full screen, this will make the video ads clickable.
• Ensure that the implementation is successful, clicks and video views are accurately reported. Review the Publisher implementation tutorial here
• ExoClick reserves the right to decline any incorrect implementation.

• The Outstream ad zone should be implemented between your site’s content, not at the top of your webpage’s video and image elements, the reason for this is that Outstream ad zones are part of the user journey. Placing the ad zone at the top of the webpage will generate less clicks. 
• We recommend you implement Oustream ad zones below the fold, ideally above or below the mobile middle on Mobile devices and between the content on Desktop devices. 
• Do not use a video player for custom Outstream implementation, but use the code provided within your Admin Panel to display the ad at the desired position on your site. Viewability and CTR metrics are affected negatively by custom implementation and might result in your site’s rejection. 
• The Outstream video will only start playing after 50% of the ad comes into view. As the user scrolls away further down your webpage the video should pause when 50% of the Outstream ad zone is not viewable on screen. The Oustream video should resume playing when the end user comes back to the content where the Outstream ad is located.
• We recommend that you select an automatic response width that fits 100% of the container on your site. If you decide to choose a custom width size, ensure not to apply any restriction to the container’s height, so that the video ad height is adjusted automatically based on the width, to maintain a great aspect ratio.
• We recommend keeping Branding as the default setting this will display “Ads by ExoClick” this will ensure that the ad zone will generate more quality clicks and better engagement, 
• Ensure that the implementation has been successful so that clicks and video views are accurately reported. Review the Publisher implementation tutorial here
• ExoClick reserves the right to decline any incorrect implementation.

• In order to receive payment the publisher should keep their ad zones active at the time of the request.
