Full-width hero sections, split layouts, and multi-device spreads. Pick a template and start customizing.
A hero image is the large, prominent visual at the top of your landing page — the first thing visitors see when they arrive. It's the most important visual on your entire site because it sets the tone, communicates your product's value, and determines whether visitors stay or bounce.
Research shows you have about 50 milliseconds to make a first impression. A high-quality hero image with your product in a device frame, set against a professional gradient background, instantly signals credibility and quality. It tells visitors: this is a serious product built by a team that cares about details.
The best hero images don't just look good — they drive conversions. By showing your actual product interface in context, you reduce uncertainty and help visitors understand exactly what they're signing up for.

Choose the right dimensions for your hero section. Screenhance templates support all common sizes.
Full-width
1920×1080
Standard full-width hero for desktop. The most common choice for above-the-fold sections.
Standard
1600×900
Slightly narrower layout that works well in max-width containers and centered designs.
Wide
1440×600
Panoramic format for hero sections that need to leave room for text below the fold.
Mobile
750×1334
Portrait-oriented hero for mobile devices. Essential for responsive landing pages.
Retina 2x
3840×2160
Double-resolution export for Retina and HiDPI displays. Crisp on every screen.
Choose a layout that matches your landing page design and messaging style.
A single device frame front and center with a gradient background. Clean, focused, and effective. Best for simple products with a clear UI.
Text on the left, product mockup on the right. The classic SaaS layout that balances messaging with visual proof. Great for headline-driven pages.
Show your product across laptop, tablet, and phone simultaneously. Communicates cross-platform support and builds confidence in your product.
Product screenshot with floating cards, notifications, and UI components. Creates depth and highlights specific features within the hero.
Follow these best practices to create hero visuals that drive signups and engagement.
Don’t hide your UI behind abstract illustrations. Visitors want to see what they’re getting. A real product screenshot in a device frame builds trust faster than any stock photo.
A raw screenshot looks unfinished. Placing it in a MacBook, browser, or iPhone frame gives it context and makes it feel like a real, polished product.
Your hero image background should complement your brand colors. Use gradients that align with your color scheme to create a cohesive, professional look.
Over 50% of web traffic is mobile. Create a separate mobile-optimized version of your hero image with a tighter crop and larger UI elements.
Hero images are the largest visual element on your page. Export as WebP to reduce file size by 25–34% without visible quality loss. Your Lighthouse score will thank you.
