Most common web-banner formats in Norway (mest vanlig banner formater i Norge)

» 27 August 2009 » In Uncategorized » No Comments

After some research, I (believe) I have found the most common webbanner formats in Norway.

Both the ad agency McCann Norge and webproduction company Jucicy agree that these are the 3 most common sizes: – Board: 468×400

- Topbanner: 768×150
- Skyscraper: 180×500 (can have different heights)
Microsoft Advertising Norge say they use mainly

- 300×250

- 234×60

But, they also have: 728×90, 160×600 and 180×150

This is the overview from VG banner formater
Format Pixler (bredde x høyde) Maks kB
Toppboard 768 piksler 150 piksler 50 kB
Nettboard 468 piksler 400 piksler 60 kB
Nettboard3 468 piksler 600 piksler 60 kB
Sideboard 180 piksler 500 piksler 40 kB
Sideboard 180 piksler 650 piksler 45 kB
Smalmidt 468 piksler 100 piksler 30 kB

Creative Review has yet again analyzed logos for 2009 and these are the logo trends for 2009. To be honest, I find that they have so many “trends”, 13 in total, that it hardly can be seen as a “trend”. Also, some look very similar to last years trends, such as VariDot:
