Not to be missed: The ultimate social media image sizing cheat sheet

If you have anything to do with a branded social media profile, then this blog is guaranteed to make your life easier. When I stumbled across this absolute delight of an infographic, courtesy of LunaMetrics, I immediately saved it down on the system. Do it now…

The infographic contains all the latest details on social media sizing, from your avatars and cover photos right through to the images you post onto your news feed or in your sponsored stories. You will never find yourself frustrated by cut-off images in your Facebook feed ever again.

2)      Source vivid, engaging images

3)      Be aware of copywriting laws
