The Ultimate Guide to Ad size specifications

Adsvise just solved a huge problem for designers and marketers everywhere

Ever wasted hours upon hours looking for digital ad spec sizes across multiple social and advertising channels?

We have.

The thing is, we started using articles and infographics to get what we needed but sizes are not always kept up to date and to go into each network every time to find official spec guidelines was taking way too long.

Le spreadsheet. Good but not great.

After eventually stocking up on information from multiple networks that we were using, we put it all into a spreadsheet for internal use and realised that we had just saved ourselves hours for the next time.

So then the thought process was ‘how can everyone get this?’ and what’s the best way to set it up so that it’s never out of date, always relevant and the UX is so simple that every designer and marketer on the planet can just dive in and get what they need quickly and hassle free.

The Result

Adsvise was born. It really is the ultimate tool to help designers and marketers get through the mental maze of online ad spec research and save bundles of time in the process.

Here’s the full story and here’s how it works:
