If you’re reading this, you’re probably working on a post for social media and trying to figure out what the correct image size is. It’s hard to build a strong social media presence when you’re still figuring out the basics each time you want to make a post. With only a few more months left in 2019, you can build better social media habits to start 2020 with a stronger social media strategy.
In this quick write up, I’ll give you a cheat sheet for image sizes so you’re focused less on how to make the image and focused more on creating meaningful content. If you need help thinking of new and meaningful content, I have a short write up about how to improve your social media strategy for more customer engagement as a realtor (also applicable to other fields).
You can bookmark this page for quick reference or download my cheatsheet with PSD template files so you always have it close when you're making your next post.
