Guide

Why Open Graph tags matter

When you share a link on LinkedIn, Facebook, Slack, WhatsApp or X, the preview card (image, title, description) comes from the page's Open Graph tags. Without them, platforms guess, and links often appear with no image or the wrong text, which costs clicks.

The essentials are og:title, og:description, og:image (1200×630 pixels) and og:url, plus twitter:card for X.

Tips

Tips for using the Open Graph checker

Use a real image

A custom 1200×630 image with readable text earns far more clicks than a logo.

Test before you share

Check new pages before posting; platforms cache the first version they see.

Generate missing tags

Create the full set with the Open Graph generator.

Don't forget X

Add X card tags with the Twitter card generator.
