Formatting content

We have just moved to a wholly web-based newsletter that sits within our website. This offers several options for interactive content. Please see below for formatting options.

Text embedded into an image

If your advertisements are images with the text embedded as part of the image, these will be inserted as received.

  • Image resolution: It is best to provide these types of ads as png files that are at least 200 – 300 dpi.

Separate text and images

If you would prefer the copy/text to be added as actual text on the webpage (which people can copy and paste):

  • Text: Send the text in the body of your email or attach as a word doc.
  • Images: Attach any images that need to be included alongside the text.
  • Hyperlinks: Include the full URL of any hyperlinks, and indicate where the links should be placed. 

General specifications for all ads

  • Word limit:  150 words (unless discussed otherwise).
  • Images: png files that are at least 200dpi.
  • Buttons:  these can be added upon request. Buttons cannot be part of an image.
  • Video:  we can embed video from the following platforms: Youtube, DailyMotion, and VideoPress
  • Hyperlinks:  include the full URL of any hyperlinks, and indicate where the links should be placed.
  • Photo galleries:  number images accordingly if you want this.
