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.
