How to Add a Banner Image and Profile Picture on Facebook

Your Facebook profile and banner images are often the very first things people see when they visit your page. Think of them as the shopfront of your business. If the images are clear, professional, and on-brand, they build trust straight away. If not, you risk losing potential customers before they even look at your content.

Follow these steps to add or update these images on Facebook:

Profile Picture Refresh Guide

4. Adjust the positioning until it looks professional and centred.

Updating Your Banner (Cover Photo)

1. Move your cursor over the large space at the top of your business page.
2. Click Edit Cover Photo in the lower right-hand corner.
3. Upload a new banner that reflects your brand. This could be a branded graphic, a team photo, or an image that represents your services.
4. Reposition until it looks centred.

Tips for Businesses

• Use high-quality images. Blurry or pixelated photos suggest a lack of attention to detail and may give the impression that you don’t care about how your brand is perceived.
• Your profile picture works best as a clear company logo.
• Your banner should complement your logo and reinforce your brand story.
• Keep text to a minimum. Facebook cover photos aren’t the place for small print as it can appear blurry.
• Make sure your images are correctly sized and cropped. Profile photos should be circular and at least 320×320 pixels for the highest quality. The cover banner should be 820×360 pixels.
