Frequently Asked Questions
What makes a good YouTube banner?
A compelling YouTube banner is visually appealing and aligns with your channel's theme. Use vibrant colors, high-quality images, and clear fonts. Include your channel name, a brief tagline, and relevant visuals to convey your content.
What is the recommended size for a YouTube banner?
The recommended size for a YouTube banner is 2560 x 1440 pixels. On smaller screens or when windows are minimized, the image will shrink from the right side, meaning any information on that part may disappear. To optimize your banner for different screen sizes, make sure your essential information is within the safe area, which is approximately 1546 x 423 pixels within the recommended size. All our Youtube banner templates are tailored to fit YouTube's requirements perfectly, saving you the hassle of resizing.
What do I include in a YouTube banner?
Make sure your banner for your YouTube channel offers a preview of what viewers can expect from your channel. Add your logo, brand tagline, high-quality images, and use on-brand colors and fonts for readability. Design a visually appealing banner that reflects your channel's personality and theme, and don't forget to include a compelling call-to-action for audience interaction!
