This capability will provide publishers with more flexibility to design for users. ** Custom size ads work just like the standard-size units, showing either text or display ads depending on which is likely to have the best performance for the impression. Google's system predicts the value of each competing ad based on historic performance, so before it can optimize the number of ads shown on a page, Google is going to need some time to gather data.  Google did indicate that they were putting a few restrictions in place around the maximum and minimum pixels for ad sizes - for example, ad sizes that are outside of the restrictions won't appear. The size restrictions include: only one dimension can be greater than 300 pixels, the minimum width is 120 pixels, the minimum height is 50 pixels and neither the height or width can exceed 1200 pixels.  ![Pete Prestipino](https://www.websitemagazine.com/hubfs/Pete%20Prestipino.jpeg) [Pete Prestipino](https://www.websitemagazine.com/advertising/author/pete-prestipino) Digital marketing executive with proven experience in all aspects of search engine optimization (SEO), performance-based advertising, consumer-generated/social media, email marketing, lead generation, Web design, usability, and analytics. - 20-year Internet marketing veteran, currently serving as the Digital Marketing Campaign Manager at Antenna Group (formerly Chicago Digital). - Former Editor-In-Chief of Website Magazine, and a regular speaker on Web technology digital marketing strategy - Author of several books on digital marketing Including Web 360: The Fundamentals of Web Success; Affiliate 360: The Fundamentals of Performance Marketing; Domains 360: The Fundamentals of Buying & Selling Domain Names, and SEO 360: The Fundamentals of Search Engine Optimization. - - - [mailto:peter@websitemagazine.com](mailto:peter@websitemagazine.com) #### Popular Post ### [Google's PLAs Get a Boost ![Google's PLAs Get a Boost](https://www.websitemagazine.com/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/gradient-regular-logo-mark-Jan-22-2023-11-41-39-6589-PM-Apr-10-2023-01-09-06-9914-PM-Apr-25-2023-03-04-19-8793-AM-May-01-2023-08-19-35-7865-PM.png)](https://www.websitemagazine.com/advertising/googles-plas-get-a-boost) ### [Tips to Improve PPC Campaigns and Reduce Cost Per Click ![Tips to Improve PPC Campaigns and Reduce Cost Per Click](https://www.websitemagazine.com/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/pexels-photo-4482896-1.jpg)](https://www.websitemagazine.com/advertising/tips-to-improve-ppc-campaigns-and-reduce-cost-per-click) ### [Top 50 Ad Networks To Explore ![Top 50 Ad Networks To Explore](https://www.websitemagazine.com/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/gradient-regular-logo-mark-Jan-22-2023-11-51-23-2143-PM-Apr-10-2023-12-58-31-6108-PM-4-2.png)](https://www.websitemagazine.com/advertising/top-50-ad-networks-to-explore) #### Subscribe to Our Newsletter!
