Frequently Asked Questions

- How do I optimize images for LinkedIn posts?
- Upload your image to SizeSnap, set the target to 8MB or less, and compress. Smaller files upload faster and display more reliably across LinkedIn's web and mobile apps.

- LinkedIn recommends 1200x627 pixels for shared posts and 1128x191 for banner images. Compress to 8MB or less after resizing to these dimensions for the best result.
