You’ll need to follow Facebook’s image sizing and dimensions protocol. Otherwise you’ll have a hard time creating eye-catching posts that attract current and future clientele.

At TechWyse we created the infographic below on Facebook image sizes.  It will help marketers, social media experts, graphic designers and other professionals meet the image sizes and dimensions protocol.

Facebook is constantly making updates to its platform. The latest updates are in this infographic. For example, any image that is smaller than 470×246 will be rendered a thumbnail by Facebook.

Plus, if you do not adhere to the recommended image dimensions, Facebook will choose the center of your image, essentially cutting it off.

The infographic also has information regarding text ratios. Any posts you make that contain more than 20% text might receive a smaller reach than those with optimal text ratios. Many people neglect to follow the guidelines for the text that accompanies their Facebook images. But then they wonder why it has been disapproved.
