What Is Open Graph?
Open Graph meta tags (og:title, og:description, og:image, og:url) control how a link looks when shared on Facebook, LinkedIn, WhatsApp and many other apps. This tool reads a page's Open Graph tags.
When to Use It
- When a shared link shows no image or the wrong text.
- Before promoting a page on social media.
How to Use It
- Enter the page URL.
- Check that title, description and image are present.
Understanding the Result
Use an absolute image URL, ideally 1200x630 pixels. Without og tags, apps guess from the page and often choose poorly.
Limitations
Social platforms cache previews - use each platform's debugger to refresh them after changes. Preview the card with Meta Tags Preview.
Frequently Asked Questions
They control how your page appears when shared on platforms like Facebook and LinkedIn - the preview title, description, and image shown are pulled directly from these tags rather than the page's regular meta title/description.
Social platforms will attempt to guess an appropriate preview from the page's regular content, often resulting in an inconsistent, less polished, or sometimes entirely wrong image/text being shown when the link is shared.
A common recommended size is around 1200x630 pixels, which displays well across most platforms' preview card formats without awkward cropping - significantly smaller images may appear stretched or blurry.
Social platforms aggressively cache preview data per URL - most offer a manual "scrape again" or debugging tool specifically to force a refresh after you've updated the underlying tags.
No, they're a separate specification, though Twitter/X will fall back to reading Open Graph tags if dedicated Twitter Card tags aren't present - having both explicitly set gives you more precise control over each platform's specific preview format.
