Here are the specs to keep in mind when creating ads for Google and Facebook. While there are several display ad sizes, we recommend using responsive ads or native ads as they will fit best with the placement they show up in and they are universally accepted.
Google Remarketing Ads
Images in square and landscape formats
• Your landscape image should have a ratio of 1.91:1 and be greater than 600 x 314. The file size limit is 5MB.
• Your square (1:1) image should be greater than 300 x 300. The file size limit is 5MB.
LOGO in both square and landscape formats
• Square (1:1) logo size is 1200 x 1200.
• Landscape (4:1) logo size is 1200 x 300 (min required 512 x 128)
For all your logos, a transparent background is best, but only if the logo is centered. The file size limit is 5MB.
Other best practices
Keep text to a minimum. Text may cover no more than 20% of the image.
Note: To fit in some ad spaces, your image may be cropped horizontally, up to 5% on each side.
