How to make a banner in 5 simple steps
-
Choose the size of your design
Decide what type of design you want to create, and then choose the right size for it. If you change your mind, you can always switch to a different size, from the library on your dashboard
-
Use a template or start from scratch
Using a template is the most time-efficient option when creating a design. It’s also ideal when you lack inspiration, and you have a tight deadline. We have thousands of free banner designs created by our in-house team of graphic designers. In case you already know exactly what type of design you want to make, then you can start with a blank canvas.
-
Make it yours
Next, it’s time to personalize your design to make it match your brand. Feel free to add a new image, replace the font, change the font colors, or use a clipping mask. Adding shapes and buttons will help you draw attention to the call to action. Play with different elements until you create a design that stands out. And don’t forget you can always save your logo, favorite color palettes and fonts in a brand kit, so you can use them on other projects.
-
Add animations
This is an optional step but definitely one that will make your design pop. Add some movement by using one of our animations presets using our banner editor. These will make your design stand out while showing everyone your creative side.
-
Download your banner
The last step is to download the design in the format you need and to use it on the ad platforms of your choice. You have a variety of download formats to choose from, such as JPG, GIF, MP4, HTML5, and AMP HTML.

FAQ
What are the most common banner ad sizes?
In display advertising, there are quite a few different sizes you can use for mobile devices and desktop. For mobile devices, you can use 300 x 200, 300 x 50, 300 x 100, 250 x 250, and 200 x 200. For desktop users, Google recommends the following sizes: 300 x 250, 336 x 280, 728 x 90, 970 x 90, 468 x 60, 300 x 600, 160 x 600, 250 x 250, and 200 x 200. For the best results, try to stick with these dimensions. You may also want to consider Google responsive ads, where you need to upload at least one landscape and one square image, but no more than 15 assets. The display ad format you use depends on what you want to achieve with your ad campaign.
Are there size and length limits for animated display ads?
Static or animated, all display ads that run on the Google Display Network must be up to 150KB or smaller. Animated or interactive ads need to be 30 seconds or shorter. You are allowed to use loops in your display ads, but the animation length cannot exceed the 30-second length mentioned before.
What are responsive display ads?
Responsive display ads are the default ad type for the Display Network. They automatically adjust their size, appearance, and format to fit just about any available ad space. To create these ads, upload the different ad assets, including headlines, logos, images, and descriptions (you may upload multiple assets of any specific type) into a single creative. Google will then render your ads and serve them across the Display Network, optimizing them to build a high-performing ad at the time of the impression.
