Upload 4200×700 (6:1) as the primary master. The live Company Page shows a short strip near 1128×191—design for that height, but do not upload only the display size if you want crisp retina results. Do not stretch a personal 1584×396 cover into this slot.

Upload 4200×700—the Page only shows a slim strip
LinkedIn Company Page covers are a very wide, short stage. Guides from Hootsuite and Sprout Social in 2026 still list 4200×700 as the recommended upload (about 6:1). After upload, LinkedIn renders a slim strip near 1128×191 on the Page. Shipping only 1128×191 often looks soft on high-DPI and 4K screens.
Design for the display height: keep the brand mark and one short line in the open center. Far left and right edges are atmosphere—phones and layout chrome can tighten them. Dense photography, multi-line slogans, and edge-only logos collapse when the strip is under 200px tall.
Personal profile covers stay at 1584×396 (4:1) with a large avatar overlap. Stretching personal banner art into the Company Page slot squeezes faces and clips headlines. Company logos (square circle marks) are a third upload—do not force the circular logo into this strip.
Prefer JPG or PNG, sRGB, and keep file weight under LinkedIn’s common ~3MB cover limit. Soft screenshots, busy stock collages, and microscopic taglines fail after LinkedIn re-encodes the image.
Good vs weak crop
Same short banner strip—quiet lower-left for the avatar, subject in the open mid/right band.

Upload 4200×700 vs display ~1128×191
Older guides still cite 1128×191 as “the size.” That is closer to how the strip renders on the Page. LinkedIn’s recommended upload—and what Hootsuite / Sprout publish in 2026—is 4200×700 so high-DPI displays stay crisp.
Use the display-oriented preset in this tool to check framing at strip height. Prefer downloading the 4200×700 upload for production.
- Primary download: 4200×700.
- Display reference: ~1128×191.
- Same center-safe framing either way.
Company cover vs personal 1584×396
Personal profiles use a taller 4:1 banner (1584×396) with a large avatar overlap in the lower-left. Company Page covers are a shorter ~6:1 upload that displays as a slim strip. Reusing one file for both usually fails one of the two crops.
- LinkedIn personal cover — 1584 × 396 (4:1)
- Company cover upload: 4200×700.
- Avatar / logo overlaps differ—design each surface on purpose.
Keep the brand in the center safe band
Company Page layouts and mobile browsers can trim the far sides of a very wide banner. A wordmark glued only to the left or right rim often disappears for some visitors.
- Center: logo + one short line.
- Edges: calm fill only.
- Avoid dense paragraphs on the cover itself.
File requirements
JPG suits photo backgrounds; PNG suits flat brand art. Prefer sRGB. Keep under LinkedIn’s common ~3MB cover limit. Start from a sharp master—LinkedIn compression punishes soft upscales.

Common mistakes
- Uploading only 1128×191 and wondering why the cover looks soft on retina.
- Uploading a personal 1584×396 cover to the Company Page.
- Parking the only logo on the far left or right edge.
- Stretching a Facebook cover without a fresh 6:1 crop.
- Micro type that vanishes after compression.

- Prefer 4200×700 for the file you upload to LinkedIn.

Frequently asked questions
What is the LinkedIn Company Page cover size in 2026?
Upload 4200×700 pixels (6:1)—the size Hootsuite and Sprout Social list for Company covers. The Page displays a slim strip near 1128×191.
Should I upload 1128×191 or 4200×700?
Upload 4200×700. 1128×191 is closer to display height; uploading only that often looks soft on high-DPI screens.
Is the company cover the same as a personal LinkedIn cover?
No. Personal covers are commonly 1584×396 (4:1). Company covers upload at 4200×700 and display as a much shorter strip.
Where should the logo sit on a company cover?
In the center safe band. Far edges can trim on some layouts, so avoid edge-only branding.
Can I reuse a Facebook cover on LinkedIn Company Pages?
Reuse the photo, then re-crop to 4200×700. Facebook covers use a different ratio—force-fitting them warps the brand mark.
Where do I upload the Company Page cover?
As a Page admin, open the Company Page → edit cover / background photo. It is not the same field as a personal profile banner.
