Resize Images for Google Business Profile
Your Google Business Profile photos appear in Google Search and Google Maps — seen by thousands of potential customers. Properly sized images improve your local SEO ranking and customer trust. ImageGates resizes your business photos to Google's recommended dimensions.
Google Business Profile photo sizes
Google Business Profile enforces a minimum resolution and a file size range, and rejects images that are too small or too large. Cover, logo and interior photos each have their own crop.
Exact specifications:
- Recommended: 1200×900 px (4:3)
- Minimum: 720×720 px
- Logo: 720×720 px square
- File size range: 10 KB to 5 MB
- Formats: JPG, PNG
What causes a rejected or degraded result:
- Uploading a screenshot or a photo with a heavy filter — Google may reject stylised images.
- A cover photo whose subject is at the edges, cropped differently in Search and Maps.
- Photos below 720 px, which Google rejects outright.
Preparation order that avoids rework:
- Use real, unfiltered photos of the premises, team and products.
- Crop to 4:3 and resize to 1200×900 px.
- Keep each file between 100 KB and 2 MB.
