Facebook feed posts support images from 1.91:1 landscape to 4:5 portrait. For maximum visibility in the mobile feed, use 1080×1350 pixels (4:5 portrait). Square posts (1080×1080) are also popular and display consistently across devices. Link posts with preview images work best at 1200×630 (1.91:1).
- •Use 1080×1350 (4:5) for photo posts to maximize mobile feed visibility.
- •For link posts, ensure your OG image is 1200×630 (1.91:1) to get the large preview card.
- •Upload at maximum resolution — Facebook compresses everything, so a higher-quality source yields better results.
What you need to know
Facebook's display behavior varies by aspect ratio. Portrait (4:5) posts take up the most mobile feed real estate, similar to Instagram. Square (1:1) posts are a reliable middle ground. Landscape images appear smaller in the feed.
Link posts — where you share a URL and Facebook generates a preview — use a different recommended dimension: 1200×630 (1.91:1). This is the Open Graph image format. If your link preview image is too small or the wrong ratio, Facebook will show a tiny thumbnail instead of a large preview card, drastically reducing click-through rate.
Facebook compresses all uploaded images. For photos, upload at the highest resolution available (up to 2048px wide for best results). For graphics with text, PNG preserves sharper edges than JPG. The maximum file size is 10MB for organic posts.
