Tips
Mind your profile picture on the banner
Your profile picture covers part of the profile background on the left. Keep text and logos away from that corner.
Square and portrait stand out
Square and portrait images take up more space in the feed than wide ones, especially on phones.
Use a clear headshot
For your profile picture, a well-lit photo of your face, centered, works best.
Keep text readable
Many people browse LinkedIn on a phone. Use large text and few words on images.
Questions
What size is a LinkedIn profile background?
1584×396 is the usual recommendation. LinkedIn can change it, and your profile picture covers part of it.
What size should a LinkedIn post image be?
1200×627 for landscape, 1080×1080 for square and 1080×1350 for portrait are common choices.
Is my image uploaded?
No. It's resized in your browser and never leaves your device.
Can I schedule LinkedIn posts?
Yes. With PilotPost you can schedule posts to your profile and company pages with your images.
