If you want your social media images to look their best, you need to optimise your sizes. Keeping on top of what sizes are best for which site isn’t always easy.
Did you know, in the last year the best size for your Facebook cover photo has slimmed down by 23 pixels? I didn’t even know it had been on a diet.
This is why I love stumbling across infographics like the one below from Spredfast. All the most important social media image sizes nicely put together in one place.
And, if you’re like me and you love numbers even more than graphics, you can jump straight to the text summary below.
Happy optimising!
