LinkedIn Link Card Specifications & Ratios

LinkedIn relies exclusively on Open Graph protocol (og:*) metadata with strict image dimension and feed truncation limits.

  • Image Dimensions: Recommended 1200 x 627 pixels (Aspect ratio 1.91:1). Minimum size: 400 x 209 pixels.
  • Feed Title Limit: Maximum ~60 characters on mobile before ellipsis truncation.
  • Description Limit: Maximum ~100 characters displayed on feed link cards.
  • File Format & Weight: JPG, PNG, or non-animated GIF under 5MB in weight.
  • Domain Badge: LinkedIn automatically extracts and displays the root hostname (e.g. `faisalrafique.com`) below the image.

Examples

Example 1: B2B SaaS Case Study Post

Input: Title: How We Scaled Next.js to 1M Users | Image: 1200x627 PNG | Domain: faisalrafique.com
Calculated Result: Renders crisp high-resolution banner, bold two-line headline, clean domain badge.

Meets LinkedIn's exact 1.91:1 aspect ratio, avoiding gray side-bars or blurred thumbnails.

Example 2: Missing Image Fallback

Input: URL with og:title and og:description, but missing og:image.
Calculated Result: Status: Warning | Displays a low-CTR tiny text-only grey box without visual thumbnail.

LinkedIn link posts without an image suffer over 70% lower click engagement on corporate feeds.

Frequently asked questions

What is the recommended image size for LinkedIn link previews?

The optimal image size for LinkedIn link posts is 1200 x 627 pixels, which adheres to a 1.91:1 aspect ratio. Images smaller than 400 x 209 pixels will render as small square thumbnails instead of full-width banner cards.

How long does LinkedIn cache link preview images?

LinkedIn caches link preview data for approximately 7 days. To force LinkedIn to refresh its cache immediately, paste your URL into the official LinkedIn Post Inspector tool.

Does LinkedIn use Twitter Card metadata?

No. LinkedIn does not read `twitter:*` metadata. It strictly looks for Open Graph protocol tags (`og:title`, `og:image`, `og:description`, `og:url`).

Why does my LinkedIn card show an old image after updating the site?

LinkedIn's CDN caches scrape responses aggressively. You must clear the cache using the LinkedIn Post Inspector or append a dummy query parameter (e.g. `?v=2`) to force a fresh scrape.
