Understanding Open Graph Tags

Open Graph (OG) tags are HTML meta tags originally created by Facebook in 2010. They control the title, description, image, and URL displayed in social share cards when someone shares your link on Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Slack, WhatsApp, Discord, and many other platforms. Properly configured OG tags significantly improve click-through rates from social shares by providing an attractive, accurate preview of your content.

Essential OG Tags

Every page should include at minimum: og:title, og:description, og:image, og:url, and og:type. Additionally, og:site_name adds your brand identity, and og:image:width / og:image:height help platforms render images correctly without loading them first. For Twitter-specific display, add twitter:card set to summary_large_image for large image cards.

Character Limits by Platform

Facebook truncates titles at approximately 60-90 characters and descriptions at 200 characters. Twitter shows about 70 characters for titles. LinkedIn displays around 120 characters for titles. For best cross-platform results, keep titles under 60 characters and descriptions under 155 characters. Use our character counter for precise counting, and the meta tag generator to create complete meta tag sets.

Debugging Social Shares

Social platforms cache OG tags aggressively. After updating your tags, use Facebook's Sharing Debugger to clear the cache and re-scrape your page. Twitter's Card Validator and LinkedIn's Post Inspector serve the same purpose. If your image does not appear, check that it is accessible publicly (not behind authentication), meets minimum size requirements (600x315px), and is served over HTTPS.
