Homepage exclusive: watch your performance

Recently I´ve noticed that „Homepage Exclusive“ ads are becoming more and more popular on the web. As in case of Spiegel Online the ad defines a new background color and the top and right side beneath the content get´s special elements (mostly response elements).

Baidu IPO: Who cares?
