Make sure your blog images display optimally by using recommended image sizes. Learn about the recommended image sizes for:

Blog post images

It is recommended to use an image size less than 1000 X 1000 pixels for the images in your blog. This does not apply to images that you want to use as the cover image or thumbnails for your Post List or Recent Posts elements.

Cover images

Cover images appear in your blog feeds and other blog elements. This is what readers see when they're scrolling through your blog before they select a post. As they do not appear on a full page, it's recommended to use a slightly smaller image than for the rest of your blog post images.
