how do you get an image displayed with your ad?

and a button...

[Natashka]

Some places that return sponsored results from Overture, apart from the text ad, also display a small image and 81x33 button for that site. For example, <snip>, that sometimes sends clicks through Overture to my site. Just type in something competitive, like "dating" or "travel" and you'll see what I am talking about: all results are actually from Overture, but they ALL have images.

How do you put an image with your ad in Overture? On my keyword, my site is the only one(!) on the results page without an image... What am I missing?

The person who runs that site is in charge of the formatting of the overture feed, so they must have built a database w/ images to place next to the overture feed. My guess is it pulls them based on the terms or by the ad urls.

Either way, there is no place in overture to upload a logo for these types of feeds/sites.

I think in Overtures local match area you can upload a company logo, but I am pretty certain this site is not pulling from that.

Thanks werty, sorry about the url. And what is the "local match area"? I've searched and searched on my Overture account page, and cannot find it.

No problem. Here is some info on their "local sponsored search"
