Frequently Asked Questions

What are Open Graph tags?

Open Graph tags are meta tags that control how your webpage appears when shared on social media platforms like Facebook, LinkedIn, and Twitter. They define the title, description, image, and other metadata that platforms use to create rich previews of your content.

What's the difference between OG tags and Twitter Cards?

Open Graph tags are the standard used by Facebook, LinkedIn, and most platforms. Twitter Cards are Twitter-specific tags. Twitter will fall back to Open Graph tags if Twitter Card tags aren't present, but using both ensures optimal display across all platforms.

What image size should I use for og:image?

The recommended size for Open Graph images is 1200x630 pixels (1.91:1 aspect ratio). This ensures your image displays properly on Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn without being cropped. Minimum recommended size is 1200x630px, maximum file size should be under 8MB.

Why isn't my URL fetching properly?

If URL fetching fails, the website may be blocking automated requests or have CORS restrictions. You can still validate by copying the HTML source: right-click on the page, select 'View Page Source', copy the <head> section, and paste it directly into the tool.

How do I fix validation errors?

The tool shows errors and warnings for missing or incorrect tags. Edit the tags directly in the tool to fix issues, then copy the corrected HTML code and add it to your website's <head> section. Required tags are og:title, og:description, and og:image.

Will fixing these tags improve my SEO?

Yes, indirectly. While Open Graph tags aren't direct ranking factors, they make your content more shareable and engaging on social media, which can drive more traffic and backlinks to your site - both of which positively impact SEO.
