Facebook cover photo: what works and what does not
The Facebook cover photo (851×315px) is the largest visual element on your Facebook Page or profile and the first thing visitors see. It should convey your brand, current promotion, or personality at a glance. Avoid heavy text — Facebook has historically penalised text-heavy ad images and the cover photo is no different. Keep critical visual content within the central 820×312 safe zone, as the top and bottom edges can be clipped on mobile devices. Update your cover photo seasonally or when running campaigns to keep your profile looking active.
Profile picture vs cover photo on Facebook Pages
For Facebook Pages, the profile picture sits in the lower-left corner of the cover photo, creating overlap. This means the bottom-left corner of your cover photo will be obscured by the circular profile picture. Design your cover with this in mind — leave the bottom-left area clear of important text or design elements. At 170×170px, your profile picture should be your logo or a clean headshot that remains recognisable even at small sizes in the news feed.
The 1200×630 image size for link sharing
When you share a link on Facebook — whether a blog post, product page, or news article — Facebook pulls the Open Graph image from that page. The standard size is 1200×630 pixels (roughly 1.91:1 ratio). If your website does not have a correctly sized OG image, Facebook will either show a small thumbnail or no image at all, dramatically reducing click-through rates. Use this tool to create a properly sized OG image for your most important pages.
Facebook Stories: designing for vertical mobile screens
Facebook Stories use the 9:16 format at 1080×1920 pixels — the same as Instagram Stories. Keep interactive elements (polls, links, CTAs) away from the very top and bottom of the screen where Facebook's UI overlaps the image. Stories disappear after 24 hours but are shown prominently at the top of the news feed, making them valuable for time-sensitive promotions and announcements.
