LinkedIn picture size: Useful tips for your profile

A meaningful profile counts as a personal figurehead in the professional network LinkedIn. The first glance always falls on the profile picture, which is why a well-chosen photo is particularly important. What kind of profile pictures are available on LinkedIn and what sizes LinkedIn recommends for them, you can find out here.

LinkedIn: Image size for different profile types

On LinkedIn, both individuals and companies can create a profile. For the right image size, consider the following:

• Personal Profile: Your personal profile consists of both a profile picture and a cover picture. The profile picture should not exceed a dimension of 400x400 pixels and a size of 8 MB. The image will be automatically circular cropped in the profile and displayed at 152x152 pixels. For the cover image, a size of 1,584x396 pixels is recommended with a maximum size of 4 MB.
• Company profile: a size recommendation of 400x400 pixels also applies here. The image has a displayed size of 112x112 pixels in the profile and is displayed in square format. For the cover image, LinkedIn recommends a size of 1,536x768 pixels.

Ideal Image Size for LinkedIn Status Updates

Also for a status update, LinkedIn recommends adjusting the image size. The ideal size of an image for a status update is 1,200x627 pixels. Bilder für einen Blogartikel laden Sie idealerweise im Format 744x400 Pixel bei einer maximalen Größe von 10 MB hoch.
