Missing Open Graph Tags: How to Fix It
Open Graph tags (og:title, og:description, og:image) control how your page looks when shared on Facebook, LinkedIn, WhatsApp, and many chat apps.
Quick fix: Add og:title, og:description, and og:image tags so links to this page look good when shared on Facebook, LinkedIn, and WhatsApp.
Why it matters for SEO
Without them, shares show a plain link or a random image. A large preview image and clear title get far more clicks from social traffic.
How to fix it
- 1Add og:title, og:description, og:image, og:url, and og:type inside <head>.
- 2Use a 1200 x 630 pixel image under 5 MB.
- 3Use an absolute URL for og:image.
- 4Test the preview with a link-sharing debugger.
