It's basically due to their suitable sizes, that fits ad spaces on most websites, as a result, those ad sizes have become the standard.
We´ve described the best performing ad sizes above, let's now focus on the best of the best and see how they are mostly used.
This is the most compact banner size. It performs well when embedded within text content. You see the 300×250 ad size often used within news articles and blog posts. It also works well on both mobile and websites because of its size, as it works well with most screen aspect ratios.
The Leaderboard got its name because it’s usually displayed at the top of a web page. It's also often used as a divider between articles or big text blocks. Most experts recommended using the Leaderboard on forums and similar pages.
This banner got its name Skyscraper because it is tall and narrow. It looks like a Skyscraper. This is often displayed on either side of web pages, outside of the article area you are reading.
