BannersThe most common application for banners is to use them as advertisement space, placing the banner in a predetermined block on the site, usually on either the right-hand or the left-hand side of the page. Banners are often ads for sponsors, and clicking on the banner will take you to a sponsor's site. They may also feature ads for the site administrator, and clicking on the banner can take the visitor to a site introducing a product, for example. Moogo's banners come in standard sizes, but their size and shape offer an almost endless choice of varieties. It is worth keeping in mind, however, that if a banner is too big, it can be both impractical and distracting from the main content of your page.
Adding a BannerAdd a new banner by clicking on the "Banners" link on the "Site Management" tab on the top of the page. The "Banner Management" page features a list of all the banners that have been added to the page. You can also see how many clicks each of the banners has received. Add a new banner by clicking on the "New Banner" button. Visibility and Banner LocationYou can choose whether a banner is visible on the front page only or on the entire site. The option to have banners only visible on specific sub-pages is not yet available. You can choose to place a banner on either the left-hand or the right-hand side of the page. If you have the blog feature, you may place a banner below the blog entries. You can freely change the order and location of the banners on the pages if you choose for the banner to be located on a content block. You will find more details on moving content blocks under the "Page Layout and Structure" instructions. Banner TypesThe banner can be a picture or a code with flash elements. Picture BannerChoose the picture to use as a banner by clicking on the "Picture Selection" button. The Moogo browser will open and you can upload a picture from your computer. The use of the file browser is described in more detail in "Text Editor and Picture Editing." Code BannerBy clicking on the "Add HTML Code" button, a small text field appears in which the banner's HTML code can be entered.

Choose the content page and the direct address of the page will appear in the text field. 2. FileYou can create a direct link from a banner to a file. For example, you can have a PDF open just by clicking the banner. By clicking on the "Choose a File" button, the Moogo file browser will open and you can choose a file from your computer.
