Here’s the solution to a question I get a lot – “How do I make a Facebook cover that looks good on all devices?“.

Have you ever seen this?  So this cover is great on Facebook (see below):    

But then you look it up on your mobile and you’re obviously missing some information (see below).

 

What now?

So here’s the deal.  Facebook has different cover sizes for different devices (desktop, mobile, tablet, etc).
As you can see below, Facebook cover sizes for desktop & mobile have the same width (828) BUT, they have different heights (315 VS 425), reason why the cover picture gets cropped on the mobile!

The solution to the perfect Facebook cover size.

I’m sharing with you the perfect size that will fit for all devices (or at least, most of them!!).  AND how to create them.
