Switching Live Advertisements

Advertisers on Harnesslink can switch out the ad they have currently running on Harnesslink.com for no added cost. In order to seamlessly provide this service, Harnesslink have set up an ad upload form located HERE. When advertisers already have ads running on Harnesslink.com, we ask that they use this ad upload form to switch out the ads in question.

Some of the fields on the form are not required, but we need to be provided with the following:

· The advertiser
· The new ads/files
· The new URL

We aim to have all ads changed upon receiving the submission within 24 hours, however in some cases it may take up to 48 hours. Please also be aware that we are based in New Zealand so time zone differences may mean we are unable to reply or action a request on our weekends.
