Banners & embed codes
IllusionCloud provides ready‑made banner images and HTML snippets so you can promote our services on your website, forum or email newsletters. To find and use them:
1. **Open your affiliate dashboard** – Log in to the IllusionCloud client area and click **Affiliates** to open your affiliate area.
2. **Browse available banners** – In the affiliate area look for a section labelled **Marketing Materials**, **Banners** or **Links** (terminology may vary). Here you’ll find banners in different sizes (for example 468×60, 120×60 or 300×250) and formats (static images or animated GIFs).
3. **Copy the embed code** – Each banner displays an HTML snippet containing your unique referral link. A typical snippet looks like:
`<a href="https://yourdomain.com/aff.php?aff=YOURID"><img src="https://yourdomain.com/banners/468x60banner.gif" width="468" height="60" alt="IllusionCloud Banner" border="0"></a>`
The `<a href>` includes your affiliate ID, while the `<img>` tag points to the hosted banner. WHMCS uses special notation (`<(>` and `)>`) to display code safely in the dashboard; when copying into your own site you should preserve the standard HTML structure so the banner and referral link function correctly.
4. **Paste into your site** – Copy the entire snippet and paste it into the HTML of your website, blog, forum signature or email template. Do **not** modify the `aff` parameter or remove your referral code, otherwise clicks may not track.
5. **Customise the appearance** – You can adjust the `width` and `height` attributes to fit your layout or wrap the banner in a `<div>` for styling. If your platform strips HTML, you can instead place a plain link (see the "Find your affiliate link" page) and link the text manually.
Following these steps ensures that your banners display properly and that your affiliate referrals are recorded. Feel free to experiment with different sizes and styles to see which ones perform best.
