Many New Zealand companies work with multiple social media platforms, from Facebook and Twitter, to Pinterest and Instagram. Whether you’re an Auckland digital agency managing clients platforms, or small business managing your own blog, it’s important to ensure these efforts are a positive extension of your brand. Social media platforms regularly update their websites, including the image dimensions that you need to use when posting, so it can be tricky to remember (or try to figure out) the correct image dimensions for 2017, for each website.
