Why Should I Care?
Your logo is your visual handshake and first impressions matter. When it shows up pixelated or cropped on Instagram, Facebook, or LinkedIn, it sends the message that your brand isn’t polished or paying attention to details. If you’ve ever squinted at your blurry profile image and thought “eh, close enough,” you’re not alone, but it is costing you credibility…
So What’s Going Wrong?
- Wrong file type (like uploading a low-res JPG instead of a crisp PNG).
- Wrong size or resolution for the platform (each one has different display rules).
- No clear space or background clutter that makes the logo hard to read.
Okay… How Do I Fix It?
Best Practice Logo File Types:
- .PNG (transparent background) – ideal for profile pics, post graphics, and email signatures
- .JPG – At the correct size this yields crisp results
Pro tip: Always export at 72dpi but at the correct size per platform for optimal results
