There are so many people out there using the wrong photo dimensions!

Many assume that one photo translates to each platform. This causes images to display improperly which can significantly lower your post optimization rate.

As you know, social media platforms are visually driven so your content needs to be, too!  Therefore, if you have a photo that doesn’t fit (and looks bad) people will likely move on.
