The LinkedIn cover banner is 1584×396 px (4:1) on desktop. On mobile, the bottom ~120 px is hidden by your profile photo and headline overlay, so keep important content in the top 60% of the canvas.

Export as JPG quality 90 under 8 MB. PNG is supported but adds nothing for photographic banners.

Avoid placing your name in the banner — it duplicates the profile name and looks amateur. Use it for a tagline, portfolio screenshots, or brand color.
