Creating Web Headers
Web Headers are simply large sized banner ads at the top of a webpage. The banner at the top of this page is a web header.
Size
Surprisingly, there is no standard size (width and height) for web headers. Generally speaking, a width of around 700 to 1000 pixels and a height of 90 to 200 pixels will work.
WordPress lists nearly 50 different sizes of header images for customized themes. Link.
Format
Header images can be in jpeg, png, or gif formats. Animated gifs are also supported. Size in kb is less important than it is with banner ads. However, a smaller file will load faster, and files that load fast are seen faster. If your file takes a long time to load because it is over a megabyte, visitors may not see the header and scroll down or click on a different site.

Tips for web header images
Keep the kb size small. The fewer the kb, the faster the web header will load.
Animation will work, but remember the rule to keep it small. The more animation you add, the larger the image and the slower the file will load.
