Images for Google Display

For Google Display ads, either self-created banners can be uploaded or responsive display ads can be used. 

The responsive display ads have the advantage that they can be implemented faster, because here only images and logos need to be uploaded together with the already created titles and text lines and Google automatically generates ads from them. 

However, these offer fewer design options than the self-created banners. 

Examples of responsive display ads:
