Make Sure Your Facebook Business Page Cover Photo is First Rate
Set your Call-To-Action button up for success by making sure your Cover Photo is downright fabulous.
Facebook’s main color scheme is grays and blues, so it’s best to use other color combinations for the Cover Photo. You don't want the Call-To-Action button to become obscure or blend in, and become un-noticeable.
The Facebook Cover Photo area is your largest piece of real estate you have on the Page, so it’s nice to change it out at least each month.
Here are a few Tips for how to make your Cover Photos memorable for your Fans:
• First and foremost - make your Cover Photo translate the Experience of your Product / Service.
• Always include a reference to your Business Brand in the Cover Photo.
• Reveal Benefits of your Product / Service.
• Announce a Contest or Promotion of a New Product / Service.
• Use photos that Describe your product.
• Feature your Employees as a group or individually.
• Celebrate Milestones and Memories.
• Share Social or Online / Offline Recognition and/or Awards.
• Display your company’s Support for a Regional / Global cause.
• Highlight upcoming business related Events.
• Explain what your Page is About.
• Cross Promote your other Social Media platforms.
• Coordinate your Cover Photo with the changing Seasons.
• Showcase a recent glowing Review or Testimonial.
• Show off your Personality as related to your Brand.
• Feature your Fans by displaying a photo with text for Birthdays, Anniversaries, etc.
• Use an Arrow or Pointer directed toward your Call-To-Action button.
