Commonly Used Screen Resolutions

Love My Credit Union is one of the web sites CU Village manages. It receives a high volume of traffic from all areas of the country from consumers and businesses alike. So the traffic to it is fairly representative of the visitors most credit unions are likely to get.

Some interesting usage stats we just pulled from it recently are the screen resolutions visitors to the site use. Here are the top ten:

1. 1024x768 - 45%
2. 1280x800 - 13%
3. 1280x1024 – 13%
4. 1440x900 - 7%
5. 800x600 – 6%
6. 1680x1050 – 4%
7. 1152x864 - 4%
8. 1280x768 - 2%
9. 1920x1200 - 1%
10. 1280x960 - 1%

Larger resolutions enable you to fit
more on a screen at one time

As you are considering redesigning your credit union web site, use this information as a guide for what resolution (i.e. 1024 x 768) to tune your new design to. The goal is to strike the right balance between taking advantage of the bigger screens that have come out in recent years and having it work with older systems.
