How to pack your pannier bags for your bike trip?

I am taking a very long cycle trip and would like to know what is the best way to pack my bike. I bought 4 pannier bags two large and two small. Where should I put the weight and what size pannier bags should I use? Should I put the large on the back and the small on the frount?

    Yes, larger in back. Most important is to even out the weight side to side. And of course put the items you need to access hourly on top and the items you need to access daily down further.

    Yes, what he said. In addition, I would recommend putting heavier items on the bottom of the panniers. Try to keep your center of gravity as low as possible.
