Depending on the type of photo you're attempting to upload to your GBP listing there are different size requirements based on each. For instance, profile photos and logos have a minimum size requirement of 250 x 250px, while cover photos have a minimum size requirement of 480 x 270px.

Despite the difference in minimum size requirements, your photos will look best on Google if they meet the following:

  • Minimum resolution:  720 x 720px.

  • Format: JPG or PNG.

  • Size: Between 10 KB and 5 MB.

  • Quality: The photo should be in focus and well lit, and have no significant alterations or excessive use of filters. In other words, the image should represent reality.
