What is the Open Graph Protocol?
The Open Graph (OG) protocol enables any web page to become a rich object in a social graph. It's a set of meta tags that you add to your website's HTML to control how your content is displayed when shared on social media platforms like Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and others.
By setting OG tags for title, description, image, and more, you ensure that sharing a link to your site results in a beautiful, informative preview card, which significantly increases engagement and click-through rates.

Check Your URL NowFrequently Asked Questions
Why is my image not showing up correctly?
Common reasons include: the URL in `og:image` is incorrect or leads to a 404 error, the image is too small (Facebook recommends at least 1200x630 pixels), or the server is blocking crawlers from accessing the image.
What's the difference between Open Graph and Twitter Cards?
Open Graph is a standard used by Facebook, LinkedIn, and others. Twitter has its own similar system called "Twitter Cards" (e.g., `twitter:card`). However, if Twitter doesn't find its own card tags, it will fall back to using your Open Graph tags. It's a good practice to include both.
Do I need an `og:url` tag?
Yes, it's highly recommended. The `og:url` tag should be the canonical URL for the page. It helps aggregate all likes and shares for that page to a single URL, even if it's accessed through different links (e.g., with tracking parameters).
