Last updated on November 15, 2022 @ 4:09 pm

Creating a website banner in Canva is easy! Follow the steps below to get started:

PRO TIP: This note is to warn you that the website banner-making process on Canva can be very addictive and time-consuming! Once you start playing around with all of the different design options, it can be hard to stop. So, if you have other things that you need to get done today, you might want to wait to start this project until another time.
  1. First, sign up for a free account at Canva.com. You’ll need to provide your name, email address, and create a password.
  2. Once you’re logged in, click on the “Create a design” button in the top-left corner of the screen.
  3. Next, select “Web banner” from the list of design options.
  4. Choose the dimensions for your banner. The standard size for web banners is 468×60 pixels, but you can also choose other sizes from the drop-down menu.
  5. Now it’s time to start designing your banner! You can upload your own images or logos by clicking on the “Uploads” tab in the left sidebar. Alternatively, you can choose from Canva’s library of over 1 million stock photos, illustrations, and icons.
  6. Once you’ve found the perfect image, drag and drop it onto your design canvas.
  7. To add text to your banner, click on the “Text” tab in the left sidebar.
  8. Here you can choose from over 100 different fonts to add headlines or body copy to your design.
  9. When you’re happy with your design, click on the “Download” button in the top-right corner of the screen. From here you can choose to download your banner as a JPEG, PNG, or PDF file.
