Resize Image for LinkedIn Post Online Free

LinkedIn recommends 1200 by 627 pixels for shared images and link previews — a wide 1.91:1 banner that's all but identical to the Open Graph standard the rest of the web uses. Hand LinkedIn that size and your post leads with a large, sharp image that earns attention in a feed full of text; hand it the wrong shape and LinkedIn crops to the centre or shrinks the picture to a small thumbnail beside the headline, which is far easier to scroll past. Resizing to 1200x627 here gives your update the full-width visual it deserves.

Because LinkedIn is where professional and brand content lives, the polish of that preview carries weight. The most common mistake is sharing a portrait photo or a square graphic and letting the platform crop it — logos drift out of frame, headshots get beheaded, and the result looks careless in a context where it shouldn't. Decide the crop yourself: trim to 1.91:1 with our free Crop tool, keep names, faces and logos comfortably inside the frame, then resize to 1200x627 so the file matches LinkedIn's spec exactly.

It's quick to do. Upload your image, let it resize toward 1200x627, check the preview and download. If the image is the share preview for an article or landing page rather than a direct post, set it as the page's Open Graph image — 1200x627 reads cleanly on LinkedIn and lines up closely with the 1200x630 most other platforms expect, so one export covers nearly everywhere your link might be shared.

Everything runs locally in your browser, so nothing is uploaded to our servers or stored — appropriate for company announcements, hiring posts or client work that isn't public yet. The tool is free and watermark-free, with no account required, so you can prepare images for a run of posts without cost or a logo stamped across your banner.

Keep any on-image text short and large, since LinkedIn previews are modest in size and often viewed on a phone. A clear headline, a clean shape and the correct 1200x627 dimensions are usually all it takes to make a post look professional. Set the frame here, keep the message tight, and your update will lead with a banner that fills the feed properly.
