Thank you Julie! I will use general rotation - c'etait tout con non?
Julie Barber Aug 15, 2006:
had a look - lots of hits for 'general rotation banner ads' / 'banner ads in general rotation' http://www.eatanddrink.co.uk/Advertise.asp
Julie Barber Aug 15, 2006:
we are being nice, because we are trying to help you :))
Paul Hirsh (asker) Aug 15, 2006:
OK julie, but more and more translations are of lists with no context, what can I do? Ppl who sell web space must use this term everyday. be nice
Julie Barber Aug 15, 2006:
there is no category of translations that people 'either know or don't know' - people who come on the site are willing to do research for the askers and to do it we need context - everyday we see examples of that changing everything....
Paul Hirsh (asker) Aug 15, 2006:
It is in a list of webpage advertising spaces, banner, skyscraper etc etc. This must have a direct translation which ppl either know or they don't.
Rob Grayson Aug 15, 2006:
I hesitate to say it.....the magic word.....context. I think a little more would help.

banner rotation

Or just "rotation" it means that, rather than a permanent "fixed" ad, your ad appears "in rotation" with other ads

You can have an ad on a site's home page or in rotation on the site's other pages.

Actually, I think "rotating" is more common then "in rotation".

In response to your note I think the term you are after is simply "rotating" (try googling it with ads, rates etc)
Note from asker:
Hi Mark, I realised that the ad changes page, but I wondered if there was a term which space sellers use.
Something went wrong...
4 KudoZ points awarded for this answer. Comment: "Thanks to both of you. In fact the size for the rotation is any fixed size, not necessarily banner, so I used "fixed size rotation""
