Choosing an aspect ratio for LinkedIn video
Choose a ratio for the actual placement and composition. LinkedIn’s organic upload guide permits a range from 1:2.4 to 2.4:1, including square, landscape and portrait. This dataset does not establish a universally best ratio or your audience’s device mix.
Fix it
- Preview the intended placement
Pick square, landscape or portrait based on the composition and where it will be shown. Compare the crop before exporting; no audience device mix is established here.
