These measures for social networks are very useful for caring about the images of your company. It is advisable to pay special attention to them to make good branding. For example, on Twitter you should consider what you show in the ‘post preview’ because, click on the image, it becomes larger.
No less important is the professional network for excellence: LinkedIn. It is very advisable to take advantage of all that social networks that offer us to take care of our personal brand. In this case, we can make a cover for LinkedIn showing the URL of our personal page or blog or indicating our profession.
And of course, be up to date is essential. Social networks are constantly changing, and when this happens, it is best to adapt our images to the recommended measures. We have the example of Google+, which has made a ‘new look’ recently.
And you? Were you consider these measures when upload an image?
