What is the correct LinkedIn banner size in 2026?

For personal LinkedIn profiles, the banner is 1584×396 pixels (4:1 ratio). For LinkedIn company pages, the banner is 1128×191 pixels (~5.9:1 ratio). These two sizes are NOT interchangeable — uploading a personal banner to a company page (or vice versa) will result in heavy cropping.

Where is the safe zone on a LinkedIn banner?

On personal profiles, the bottom-left quadrant is partially covered by your profile picture on desktop and the bottom-center on mobile. Keep critical text and logos inside the top half and toward the right side. A safe rule: place text inside a 1350×270 area centered at the top of the 1584×396 canvas.

What file format should I upload?

PNG for banners with text or logos (sharper edges, no compression artifacts). JPG for photographic banners. Keep file size under 8 MB. LinkedIn does not re-encode PNG aggressively, so high-contrast typography stays crisp.

Why does my LinkedIn banner look blurry?

Three common causes: (1) the source image is smaller than 1584×396 and being upscaled, (2) the image was saved as a low-quality JPG before upload, or (3) text was added at a small point size and is being downscaled for mobile. Always design at the exact target resolution and export at 100% quality.

Does the LinkedIn banner size differ on mobile?

Yes — LinkedIn mobile crops the banner more aggressively at the top and bottom, showing roughly the central 1584×220 strip. Keep the most important visual elements vertically centered so they survive mobile cropping.

4:1

Personal Profile Banner

Recommended

1,584 × 3964:1 · LinkedIn

The hero image on every personal LinkedIn profile. Keep important elements in the top-right — your profile picture covers the bottom-left on desktop.

5.9:1

Company Page Banner

Recommended

1,128 × 1915.9:1 · LinkedIn

Much wider and shorter than personal banners. Design specifically for this ratio — don't reuse a personal banner here.

1.91:1

Feed Post (Landscape)

1,200 × 6271.91:1 · LinkedIn

Standard landscape feed post. Works well for link previews and infographics.

4:5

Feed Post (Portrait)

1,080 × 1,3504:5 · LinkedIn

Higher engagement than landscape in 2026 — same as Instagram.

1.86:1

Article Cover

1,200 × 6441.86:1 · LinkedIn

The hero image at the top of LinkedIn long-form articles.

1:1

Profile Picture

400 × 4001:1 · LinkedIn

Upload at 400×400 minimum. LinkedIn caches multiple sizes — larger source = sharper everywhere.
