What is the correct LinkedIn banner size for a personal profile?

1584x396 pixels at a 4:1 aspect ratio.

What is the LinkedIn cover photo size for a company page?

1128x191 pixels at a 5.91:1 aspect ratio. Significantly smaller than personal profile banners.

Why does my LinkedIn banner look blurry?

Usually because the upload was smaller than 1584x396 and LinkedIn upscaled it. Always upload at full resolution. If you have a higher-resolution version (3168x792), use that for retina sharpness.

Can I use a video as my LinkedIn banner?

Only on LinkedIn Premium (Cover Story video, 30 seconds, vertical 9:16). Standard banners are static images.

How do I keep my profile picture from covering the LinkedIn banner?

You can't move the profile photo. Design your banner so the bottom-left 200x200 area is empty or contains decorative content only.

LinkedIn design tips that matter

Knowing the pixel sizes is half the battle. Here's what separates designs that get engagement from designs that don't.

Treat it like a billboard for your role

Your headline + photo + banner is your first impression on LinkedIn. Use the banner to reinforce what you do (not a generic stock photo).

Mind the profile picture overlap

On mobile, your profile photo overlaps the bottom-left of the banner. Don't put logos or important text there.

Add a clear value proposition

Even one short line of text can dramatically lift profile-to-DM conversion. 'I help SaaS founders ship 2x faster' is worth more than a sunset photo.

Use brand colors

Recruiters and prospects scroll fast. A bold color block in your brand makes you instantly recognizable across LinkedIn.
