There are however, a number of fine-tunings that you may wish to make to the amigopod to improve the user experience in subtle but effective ways: 1. You could use separate advertising spaces for images and text. The regularity of having all images placed above all text advertisements can reduce the sense of clutter. 2. You can reduce overloading the user with videos by only showing them at very specific times, such as only before login. Too many videos that the user must watch, or must explicitly skip, can cause the user to become frustrated and dissatisfied with the service - even if it is free. The following sections will show you how to achieve these goals. 3.5.1 Separating image & Flash advertisements from text advertisements IMPORTANT You need the full edition of Advertising Services to be able to create custom advertising spaces.

Fine-tuning delivery
At this stage in your deployment you have everything necessary for delivering
advertisements to the users of your system; you can even prioritize the
delivery using the
intelligent delivery
functionality provided by the

only).
There are however, a number of fine-tunings that you may wish to make to
the amigopod to improve the user experience in subtle but effective ways:
1.
You could use separate advertising spaces for images and text.
The regularity of having all images placed above all text
advertisements can reduce the sense of clutter.
2.
You can reduce overloading the user with videos by only showing
them at very specific times, such as only before login. Too many
videos that the user must watch, or must explicitly skip, can cause
the user to become frustrated and dissatisfied with the service –
even if it is free.
The following sections will show you how to achieve these goals.
