You can also adjust the size of the Header section by changing the top margin. Click the Page Layout tab at the top of the window, then click the small Page Setup button at the bottom-right corner of the Page Setup section of the ribbon. Click inside the Top field in the Margins section and enter a lower number.

A header image follows a aspect ratio, which means that it should be four times as wide as it is tall. For example, if the header image is 400 pixels wide, it should be 100 pixels tall. The best size for a header image is 1600x400 pixels.

Website banner As you can see, there are plenty of options. However, if you're thinking about having a banner that's not an ad, the rectangular options (e.g. 300 by 200 pixels or 970 by 90 pixels) are generally better. Keeping the file size small helps improve your webpage speed, so a max of 5 megabytes would be ideal.

Figure A: The header's left and right margins are one inch in all new documents. These are the same settings you see if you open this dialog in the document's body or footer. This is because the margin settings include the entire document.

Your website header should reflect your brand, clearly communicate what you offer, and be eye-catching enough to grab your audience's attention and convince them to keep scrolling. It should also check all of these boxes in as little time, and with as little copy, as possible.

CSS and Media Queries The images you upload to your site have default width and height properties, but both can be changed with the help of CSS. To make them responsive, just add a new value to the width property, and the height will adjust itself automatically.
