Top Placement Terms and Conditions

Product Summary. The Top Placement Product is designed for top visibility and top of mind exposure. Many research studies have shown that users tend to have a strong preference for advertisers that appear higher on the search results page. Generally, when an advertiser purchases a Top Placement Product for a given business heading and geography, Customer's Top Placement ad will appear in the top tier of listing results in response to a user search for that business heading (or common variations of that business heading) and geography.
Background. Yellowbook.com is designed to process user requests for information, where users enter data in a "PRODUCT /SERVICE" box or a "NAME OF BUSINESS" box along with a "LOCATION" box and the site responds with results page(s) of listings. The results of each user search is a page that displays listings comprised of local, statewide and national businesses along with possible display advertising. The order of listings is primarily based on relevance of the listings to the user's search as determined by Publisher's search algorithm. In the case of equal relevance, advertisers appear in descending sequence according to the level of internet product (e.g. Gold, INT) purchased by the Customer.
Local; National. The Top Placement Product consists of Local Top Placement Listings and National/Statewide sponsored ads. Local Top Placement listings will appear as one of the first two listing positions on the search results page. The Top Placement Product with national or statewide coverage will appear in the sponsored ad section of the search results page.
Product Market. The Top Placement Product is available for two local advertisers in each market. The market for the local Top Placement Product is determined principally by reference to the geographic scope of Yellowbook print directories. As between the two Top Placement local advertisers in each market, first and second positions are determined on a random basis resulting in each local Top Placement advertiser having an equal chance of being first over time. Product Detail-Variants. The Top Placement Product covers only the specified Top Placement business heading and common synonyms and other variants of that business heading, as determined by Publisher. Example: In the case of the Top Placement product for the "Insurance-Automobile" business heading for the Philadelphia Yellowbook directory, if a user searches for "car insurance" in "Philadelphia", the Top Placement advertiser should appear in one of the first two listing positions in the Local Results Section of the search results page.
Product Detail - Additional Search Terms. A Top Placement listing will not necessarily be returned when a user includes another search term in combination with the Top Placement Product business heading. Example: In the case of the Top Placement Product for the "Plumbers" business heading for the Chicago Yellowbook directory, if a user searches for "Plumber" (or some common variant) in "Chicago", the Top Placement advertiser should appear in one of the first two listing positions in the Local Results Section of the search results page. If, on the other hand, a user searches "Plumber Supply" and "Chicago", the Top Placement advertiser may not appear in the first two listing positions, although the Top Placement advertiser may appear lower on the search results page.
Product Detail - Overlapping Markets. In some cases there will be some overlap of the geographic scope of Yellowbook directories. When a user searches a location which is in the overlapping area, the Top Placement advertisers for each of the overlapping directories will be a "best match". In that event, two of the Top Placement advertisers in the overlapping directory markets will be randomly selected for display. The expectation is that all "best matches," i.e., all Top Placement advertisers in the overlapping markets, will have an equal chance of being displayed in the top two listing positions over time. Example: The Oakland County and Macomb County Yellowbook directories have some overlapping geographic scope, including Plymouth. In the case of the Top Placement Product for the "Florists" business heading for the Oakland County Yellowbook directory, if a user searches for "florist" (or some common variant) in "Plymouth", Top Placement advertisers from both the Oakland County Yellowbook directory and the Macomb County Yellowbook directory will be best matches. Two of the four Top Placement advertisers will be selected at random for the first two listing positions and the two Top Placement advertisers not selected would appear lower on the search results page.

Video Advertising Terms and Conditions

Product Summary. Video ads are the perfect solution for businesses whose physical location, services, products and employees can say it all. Publisher offers several video ad product options:
- Custom Video Ads: Custom video ads can combine on-camera interviews, customer testimonials, facility tours, live product demos and customer interaction to create a unique, professionally-produced, commercial quality video ad. Custom video ads can be either 30 or 60 seconds in length.
- PhotoMotion Video Ads: PhotoMotion video ads are an easier to produce, cost-effective video product. PhotoMotion video ads combine customer supplied photos, brochures and website images with panning and scanning techniques, background music, professional voice over and basic animation, resulting in a close to ‘live' video feeling. Shooting new video is not necessary. PhotoMotion videos ads are up to 30 seconds in length.
- Customer Supplied Video Ads: Customers may supply their own video commercials for display on yellowbook.com. Customer-supplied videos are subject to approval by Publisher for content. Customer supplied videos must meet the following technical requirements: up to 60 seconds in length; up to 5M file size; up to 300 kbps; standard DVD format or any other video codec format; and 720 x 480 resolution. Customer supplied video ads over 60 seconds will require editing at an additional fee of $300.00 to fit the 60 seconds allotted.
Placement Product. The video ad product MUST be associated with yellowbook.com Silver, Gold and/or Top Placement products; hence one of these products MUST be purchased with the video ad. Silver, Gold and Top Placement products, like most products, are for a 12-month contract.
What the User Will See. A link to the video ad will be attached to Customer's Yellowbook.com listing/profile. When the user clicks on the link, the video ad will begin to play alongside the other information about your business. The video player look and feel and the video link location, size and design will be determined by Publisher and may change from time to time.
Custom Videos
- Day of the Shoot
  Advertisers will be contacted to arrange for the time and place of the video shoot. A welcome package with details on how to prepare and what to expect on the day of the shoot will be sent to Customer before the day of the shoot. A video professional will arrive at Customer's premises and will work with Customer to highlight those special qualities that make Customer's business stand out from its competitors. Approximately one to two hours will be spent by the video professional at Customer's location.
- Location of the Shoot
  Only one location is allowed in the video shoot. Multiple locations will involve an additional charge.

- Video Ownership

Mobile Banner Terms and Conditions

Product Summary. The Mobile Banner Product allows Customers to take advantage of valuable advertising space on mobile devices. There are 2 types of Mobile Banner Products that can be purchased:
- Category Banners: These will be associated with the category the user searched (e.g., a restaurant banner will appear when the user searches for restaurants in their area). These will be sold per heading, per market.
- Run of Site Banners: These will appear in open inventory spots throughout the mobile application and are available per market.
Product Market. The Mobile Banner Product is available for up to 4 local Customers in each market, depending on heading. The market for the local Category or Run of Site Mobile Banner Product is determined principally by reference to the geographic scope of Yellowbook print directories. As between the Category and Run of Site Mobile Banner, Category Banners, when available, will display first with Category Banner Customers rotating so as to have an equal chance of being first over time. Run of Site Banners will appear only if there are no Category Banners sold into that heading and market. Product Detail-Variants. The Category Mobile Banner Product covers only the specified Category Mobile Banner business heading and common synonyms and other variants of that business heading, as determined by Publisher. Example: In the case of the Category Mobile Banner Product for the "Insurance-Automobile" business heading for the Philadelphia Yellowbook directory, if a user searches for "car insurance" in "Philadelphia", the Category Banner client should appear, in rotation, in the featured display location within the search results.
Product Detail - Additional Search Terms. A Category Mobile Banner will not necessarily be returned when a user includes another search term in combination with the Category Mobile Banner Product business heading. Example: In the case of the Category Mobile Banner Product purchased in the “Insurance-Automobile” heading, if a user searches “Renters Insurance” the Customer's Category Mobile Banner will not appear in rotation. If no Category Banners have been sold in an associated heading to “Renters Insurance” a Run of Site or other banner will appear in the featured display location.
Product Detail - Overlapping Markets. In some cases there will be some overlap of the geographic scope of Yellowbook directories. When a user searches a location which is in the overlapping area, the Category Mobile Banner clients for each of the overlapping directories will be a "best match". In that event, one of the Category Mobile Banner Customers in the overlapping directory markets will be randomly selected for display. The expectation is that all "best matches," i.e., all Category Mobile Banner clients in the overlapping markets, will have an equal chance of being displayed in the featured display positions over time. Example: The Oakland County and Macomb County Yellowbook directories have some overlapping geographic scope, including Plymouth. In the case of the Category Mobile Banner Product for the "Florists" business heading for the Oakland County Yellowbook directory, if a user searches for "florist" (or some common variant) in "Plymouth", Category Mobile Banner clients from both the Oakland County Yellowbook directory and the Macomb County Yellowbook directory will be best matches. One of the four Category Mobile Banner clients will be selected at random for the featured display position.
Mobile Devices. The Mobile Banner Product will be displayed on Android™, iPhone®, Windows® Phone 7, and mobile web. The Mobile Banner Product will not be displayed on certain other devices. Publisher shall not be liable for any default or delay in performance of any of its obligations under this agreement if such default or delay is caused by the failure of certain mobile devices to display the Mobile Banner Product or failure of service of a mobile device. Publisher does not guarantee availability of mobile device service or access to the network. iPhone is a trademark of Apple Inc., registered in the U.S. and other countries. Android is a trademark of Google Inc. Use of this trademark is subject to Google permissions. Windows is a registered trademark of Microsoft Corporation in the United States and/or other countries.
