As a part of its demonstration of solidarity with IAB's mission, HubPages also announced that it has already begun implementation on its site of the Billboard (970 x 250) and Portrait (300 x 1050) for several large consumer brands, the campaigns for whom have already demonstrated results that exceed performance benchmarks.

HubPages also supports all six of the Rising Stars Display Ad Units, including the Filmstrip, a 300 x 3000 unit, viewable through a 300 x 600 window, the Sidekick, the Slider and the Pushdown.
HubPages has implemented these formats for the past quarter, and has found higher than expected results for the Billboard and the Portrait, which have shown exceptional results for brand advertising on ().
"In the last few months, we've run large-scale consumer brand campaigns using the new display Billboard and Portrait formats. In one such campaign, the brand lift exceeded its target by 11 percent and there was a 20 percent lift in brand perception, which really pleased the client," says Chris Little, Director of Media Sales of HubPages. "With these new formats, and with the fact that HubPages receives an intent-driven audience that primarily comes to the site through natural search, the new IAB ad formats really deliver on the metrics that matter to brand advertisers: brand lift, brand perception, and intent to purchase."
"HubPages is so confident of our ability to deliver on our clients' targets, that we are happy to continue to offer the HubPages Ad Performance Assurance, guaranteeing the client's target brand performance," says Paul Edmondson, CEO of HubPages. "When brands advertise on HubPages, they meet all agreed-upon brand performance metrics through the campaign, or they don't have to pay."
