The best way to choose a size that suits your profile is to know the dimensions of your cover photo. The correct dimensions are 820 pixels wide by 312 pixels tall. This includes the aspect ratio of the image. You can also use a slideshow or video. If you&#8217;re not sure what size your cover photo should be, you can check out the guide below.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Its_820_pixels_wide_by_312_pixels_tall\"><\/span>It&#8217;s 820 pixels wide by 312 pixels tall<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>You need a Facebook cover photo in the proper size to display on the social networking site. It needs to be 820 pixels wide by 312 pixels tall for desktop devices, and 640 pixels wide by 312 pixels tall for mobile devices. However, you can easily resize the photo to make it fit into the recommended size. In fact, Facebook has a feature called Cover Photo Resizer, which allows you to create custom size Facebook covers for any purpose.<\/p>\n<p>One option is to use Photoshop to design your Facebook cover photo. It&#8217;s a great way to showcase your design skills, and the cover photo template has a perfect pixel representation. You can also try Canva, which has a convenient tool for design. It&#8217;s free and easy to use. If you don&#8217;t have Photoshop, you can create a cover photo using the website&#8217;s free templates.<\/p>\n<p>Adding text to a Facebook cover photo requires careful placement. If your cover photo contains text, it must be placed at the top of the image, and the text should be positioned in such a way that it won&#8217;t be cut off if the user switches devices. A Facebook cover photo should stand out from the rest, draw the audience in, and inspire them to take action.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Its_a_video_or_slideshow\"><\/span>It&#8217;s a video or slideshow<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>To make an awesome video or slideshow on Facebook, you must have a business page. Your business page must be at least four hundred pixels wide and 150 pixels high. Also, your cover photo must be in the proper size. In case your cover photo is too small, you can adjust the dimensions of your video or slideshow to fit the Facebook requirement. Once you have your video, make sure to center it on the canvas and save the file.<\/p>\n<p>Make your cover photo as attractive as possible. The layout is an important factor, and you should consider the age range of your target audience. A cover photo with nudity or racist language will not look good on Facebook. Also, the colors should be in harmony to avoid clashing. You can also incorporate tactical design elements in your cover photo to catch the user&#8217;s attention. However, make sure to follow Facebook&#8217;s rules regarding page content and image design.<\/p>\n<p>Adding video to your Facebook cover photo is a great way to catch the attention of your audience. The video can last up to 90 seconds and should highlight key points. However, don&#8217;t go too long with it. Try to keep it as short as possible. Instead, you can create an attractive photo collage and keep your images updated regularly. That way, people will be tempted to visit your page and take advantage of your services or products.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Its_a_landscape_photo_with_a_2_3_aspect_ratio\"><\/span>It&#8217;s a landscape photo with a 2:3 aspect ratio<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Your Facebook cover photo should be 820 pixels wide and 312 pixels high. The aspect ratio is important as the cover image will be displayed in mobile view at 640 x 360 pixels. Make sure that the photo doesn&#8217;t cut important elements off. You can also upload more than one image, but the display will depend on the first photo&#8217;s aspect ratio and the number of images. Make sure that the first photo is a landscape image with a 2:3 aspect ratio.<\/p>\n<p>Your Facebook cover photo, also known as your banner image, has changed in size. It can now fit images up to 820 x 312 pixels. For best results, try placing most of your information in the Mobile Save Area. It will still look great on mobile devices. You can also use a square photo if you prefer. However, if you want your cover photo to appear in a square, it&#8217;s best to go with a landscape photo.<\/p>\n<p> <iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/bEPXnj1KmQI\" width=\"488\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" height=\"273\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"margin:0px auto; display: block;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What Size is a Facebook Cover Photo 2022?
