LinkedIn banner size

LinkedIn recommends 1584 × 396 pixels (a 4:1 ratio) for a personal profile background photo, in JPG or PNG. This maker exports that exact size.

Where your profile photo covers it

Your round profile picture overlaps the lower-left part of the banner: the red guide shows the approximate area. That’s why our templates put text on the right by default. Phone layouts crop the banner differently, so keep important words away from the edges.

What to put on it

  • Your value in one line: “Helping SaaS teams cut churn” beats a list of skills.
  • A proof point or call to action: “Newsletter every Friday”, “Speaking at …”, your website.
  • Brand colors and one or two fonts. See font pairings for combinations that work.

Upload it

On your profile, click the camera/pencil icon on the background → upload → adjust → apply.

Frequently asked questions

What size is a LinkedIn banner?

1584 × 396 pixels for a personal profile background (4:1). Company pages use a different cover size, so check LinkedIn’s current guidance for pages.

Why does my LinkedIn banner look blurry?

Upload at the full 1584 × 396 size. PNG keeps text crisp; JPG files are smaller. Avoid tiny text: it’s shown much smaller on phones.

Can I use my own photo?

Yes: open “Background photo”, choose an image and use the darken slider so your text stays readable. It never leaves your device.
