Design a Creative Facebook Business Cover page with Exact Dimensions [Updated]

Facebook updated it’s Business Page Cover dimensions and they are 828 X 351 pixels.

Last year December, Facebook Timeline was announced/launched for its users. Facebook Timeline organizes your profile just like a vertical scrapbook. It displays, a reverse chronological order of your statuses, photos, videos and links posted by you or tagged by your friends. I really like this feature overruling the thought, a lot of people not liking it. Duh! A change would do you good! 🙂

Draw Facebook Cover Page

Few days back, Facebook updated Timeline feature on Business Page as well, which actually made me think of this article. Well, creating a Facebook cover is no Big Deal if you upload a sunset, a pet or bunch of gorillas.

Yes, to impress facebook page fans, you will have to draw some straight lines. Mmmm… we have an objective here to design Facebook business cover page precisely.
