Tag audit
How it works
Paste a URL
We read the page's Open Graph and Twitter Card meta tags directly — the same tags Facebook, LinkedIn, and X read when someone shares your link.
Check both previews
Facebook/LinkedIn and X render share cards slightly differently — and X often falls back to your Open Graph tags if Twitter-specific ones are missing.
Fix what's missing
The tag audit below shows exactly which tags are present so you know what to add to your page's <head>.
Why your link preview looks wrong (and how to fix it)
When someone pastes your URL into Facebook, LinkedIn, Slack, or X, the platform doesn't screenshot your page — it reads a specific set of meta tags in your <head> (the Open Graph protocol, originally built by Facebook, now used almost everywhere) to build the card. No tags, and most platforms fall back to guessing from your page's regular <title> and first image, which is how you end up with a random logo or the wrong headline showing up when your link gets shared.
The four that matter most: og:title, og:description, og:image, and og:type. For X specifically, add the twitter:card tag (usually summary_large_image for a big image card) — without it, X may not show a card at all, even if your Open Graph tags are perfect. Image size matters too: aim for at least 1200×630px: too small and platforms may reject it or shrink it awkwardly.
This isn't just cosmetic. A broken or generic-looking preview measurably drops click-through when your link gets shared — people are pattern-matching on "does this look legitimate and relevant" in a fraction of a second, and a missing image or a title that doesn't match the destination reads as spam or a broken link.
Frequently asked questions
Platforms cache link previews aggressively so they don't re-fetch your page on every share. Use Facebook's Sharing Debugger or X's Card Validator (search for "post inspector" / "card validator" on each platform) to force a re-scrape after you've updated your tags — this tool only reads live tags, it can't clear their cache.
Not strictly — X falls back to your og:* tags if Twitter-specific ones are missing, except for twitter:card, which has no Open Graph equivalent and controls whether you get a large-image card at all. Adding it is a two-minute fix worth doing.
1200×630px (a 1.91:1 ratio) is the widely-used safe size that renders well as a large card on both Facebook and X without cropping awkwardly. Smaller images may display as a small thumbnail instead of a full card.
