FOR ALL ADVERTISING IN THIS CATEGORY:
All advertising in this category requires the WV logo to be placed at the initial point of advertising and, in addition, at the point where the consumer is directed by the ad.
At the point where the consumer is directed by the ad, the applicant is required to have a visible link to the West Virginia Division of Tourism's home page (www.wvtourism.com). Visible Link means - the logo/web address (web address lettering optional) must appear in the TOP 500 pixels, (at standard web page size - 72 dpi) of the first visible page where the consumer is directed by the ad. The consumer should be able to see the logo in the visible screen without scrolling down. (SEE VISIBLE LINK.)
Consumers must be able to reach the Division's web site with one click from the page where they are first directed by the advertising.
The Tourism Commission/Division of Tourism reserves the right to determine the acceptability and value of all written, graphic and visual material as to its content and appropriateness for the general public and for the state's effort to promote tourism.
