4 min read
Boost your brand's consistency and credibility with social media covers for your social presence. With the Wix Logo Maker, you can create covers for LinkedIn, Facebook, Etsy, Twitter and YouTube directly from the Brand Studio. In order to create social media covers, you'll first need to create a logo.
Social media covers in the Brand Kit:
Our new Brand Kit offers additional features for your logo. With the Brand Kit, you get the ability to make post-download edits and get access to additional file types (including social media cover files). You can access the kit with the Social, Brand Plus, Unlimited, or Business Logo plans.
