Summary

Facebook posts for links and images generally use canvas of 1200 x 630 pixels with a ratio of about 1.91:1. This ratio gives space for titles, descriptions, and visual elements without much cutoff. Facebook can adjust the display between desktop and mobile, so keep important text away from the edge. Upload JPG or PNG with a reasonable file size to speed up the upload process.
