Open Graph Explained
Open Graph (OG) tags are special HTML meta tags that tell social media platforms — WhatsApp, Facebook, Twitter/X, LinkedIn, Slack, Telegram, and others — how to display your link when someone shares it. They control the title, description, and preview image that appear in the social card. Without proper OG tags, platforms either show a blank preview or pull random text and images from your page — making your shared links look unprofessional and reducing click-through rates.
The four essential OG tags every page needs are: og:title (headline), og:description (1-2 sentence summary), og:image (1200×630 px image), and og:url (canonical URL). Twitter/X uses its own twitter:card tag system, but falls back to OG tags if twitter-specific tags are missing. Our link preview tool fetches all of these tags and shows you the exact social card your link will generate.
Step-by-Step Guide
Paste your URL
Copy the URL you want to check — blog post, product page, landing page, or any public link — and paste it into the input field.
Click Fetch Preview
The tool fetches the page's HTML and extracts all OG and Twitter Card meta tags in real-time.
Review the card
See the exact social card — image, title, description, and domain. Check if everything looks professional and compelling.
Fix and re-test
If something's wrong, update your OG tags in your site's HTML, deploy, and fetch again to verify the fix.
Platform Guide
Each platform handles link previews slightly differently. Understanding these differences helps you optimize your OG tags for maximum impact across all channels.
WhatsApp fetches og:title, og:description, and og:image when someone pastes a link. It caches previews aggressively — changes may take hours to appear. Image should be at least 300×200 px. WhatsApp does not support twitter:card tags.
Facebook & Instagram
Facebook reads all OG tags and provides the Sharing Debugger tool to force cache refresh. Recommended image: 1200×630 px. Facebook also supports og:type, og:locale, and article-specific tags for blog posts.
Twitter / X
Twitter uses twitter:card (summary or summary_large_image), twitter:title, twitter:description, and twitter:image. Falls back to OG tags if twitter-specific tags are missing. Use the Twitter Card Validator to preview.
LinkedIn reads OG tags and shows a large image card for posts. Image should be at least 1200×627 px. LinkedIn caches previews — use the Post Inspector tool to force a re-scrape after updating tags.
Slack
Slack unfurls links using OG tags and shows a rich preview with image, title, and description. Slack also reads favicon and site_name. If og:image is missing, Slack shows only text.
Telegram
Telegram reads OG tags and shows a preview card when a link is shared in a chat. It also supports og:video for inline video previews. Telegram caches previews indefinitely — use @webpagebot to refresh.
Troubleshooting
Blank or no image
Check that og:image has a valid, publicly accessible URL (not localhost or behind authentication). Use an absolute URL starting with https://. Image should be JPEG or PNG, under 1 MB.
Wrong title or description
Make sure og:title and og:description are set in your HTML <head>. If you're using a CMS like WordPress, check your SEO plugin settings (Yoast, RankMath, etc.).
Old/cached preview
Social platforms cache OG data. Use Facebook Sharing Debugger's 'Scrape Again' button, or LinkedIn's Post Inspector. For WhatsApp, append a query parameter (?v=2) to force a fresh fetch.
Image too small or cropped
Use exactly 1200×630 px (1.91:1 ratio) for best results. Keep important content centered — platforms may crop 10-20% from edges. Test with this tool before sharing.
Tags not detected (SPA)
If your site is a single-page app (React, Vue, Angular), OG tags injected via JavaScript won't be seen by crawlers. Use server-side rendering (SSR) or pre-rendering to ensure tags are in the initial HTML.
Mixed HTTP/HTTPS
All OG URLs (especially og:image) should use HTTPS. Some platforms block or ignore HTTP image URLs for security reasons.
