Standard Banner Sizes List

The most significant metric regarding banners is the banner ad size, measured Width x Height in pixels (px). 

The idea is that a banner can be made in virtually any banner size you wish. That’s pretty cool. And yet, if every advertiser would create its banners using its own size preferences, there would be chaos. Websites would look like sloppy collages, publishers would create in-house standards for the banners they accept, media agencies would work hard creating custom banners for every website they want to advertise on and so on.

But that doesn’t happen. Because there are standard banner ad sizes. And a huge role in wide-spreading those standards plays the Interactive Advertising Bureau (IAB). The previous banner ad packs (Rectangles and Pop-Ups pack, Banners and Buttons pack and Skyscrapers pack) have been replaced by the Universal Ad Package, a set of four ad sizes that comply with IAB guidelines.

What are the most common and used standard banner ad sizes:

• Square – 250 x 250
• Small Square – 200 x 200
• Banner – 468 x 60
• Leaderboard – 728 x 90
• Inline Rectangle – 300 x 250
• Large Rectangle – 336 x 280
• Skyscraper – 120 x 600
• Wide Skyscraper – 160 x 600
• Half-Page Ad – 300 x 600
•  Large Leaderboard – 970 x 90
