What are Open Graph and Twitter Card tags?
Open Graph tags are meta tags in your page's <head> that control how your page
looks when shared as a link on Facebook, LinkedIn, Slack, and most other platforms. Twitter (X) uses
its own similar tag set, falling back to Open Graph tags when Twitter-specific ones aren't present.
Without them, platforms guess at a title, description, and image — often with unpredictable results.
The core tags you need
og:title— the headline shown on the cardog:description— a short summary shown below the title (support varies by platform)og:image— the preview image, ideally 1200×630pxog:url— the canonical URL for the page being sharedog:site_name— your site or brand nametwitter:card— set tosummary_large_imagefor a full-width image card on X
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
- Q. Why does my image look cropped or stretched when shared?
- A. Most platforms crop images to a roughly 1.91:1 ratio. Using a 1200×630px image avoids awkward cropping since it already matches that ratio.
- Q. I updated my og:image but the old one still shows when I share the link.
- A. Platforms cache Open Graph data. Facebook has a Sharing Debugger and X has a Card Validator that let you force a re-scrape of the page.
- Q. Do Open Graph tags affect my Google ranking?
- A. Not directly — they're a social-sharing signal, not a Google ranking factor. They do, however, affect click-through rates when your content is shared on social platforms.
