Google Display Ads Best Practices

Google requires a minimum image resolution of 600x314 for landscape and 300x300 for square, but recommends 1200px on the longest side for optimal display quality.

Keep important content at least 10% away from image edges to account for automatic cropping on different placements.

According to Google's 2026 ad policies, images with minimal text overlay perform better. Avoid placing text over more than 20% of the image.

Google's machine learning optimizes ad delivery based on image quality. High-contrast, clear images receive more impressions.

Responsive display ads using both landscape and square formats receive up to 50% more impressions than single-format campaigns.

Maximum file size for Google Display ads is 150KB. Use JPG format at 80-90% quality for the best balance of quality and file size.
