What problem does this tool solve?
Shared links can show the wrong image, a confusing title, or no description. The Open Graph Generator creates metadata to give supported social platforms clearer information for their link previews.
Six practical questions answered
How do I specify a preview image for my website?
Supply the image’s complete URL for og:image. The destination platform must be able to access the image when it reads your page.
How can I set a custom title for a shared link?
Use og:title to specify a title that accurately describes the page in a social preview.
Why is Facebook showing the wrong preview image?
Possible causes include missing Open Graph tags, inaccessible images, or cached preview information. This local generator does not fetch or clear a platform’s cache.
How do I influence the description in a social link preview?
Provide a relevant og:description. The platform still controls its actual presentation and may shorten or replace the text.
Which Open Graph fields fit an article page?
Typical fields include the title, description, page URL, image, and an appropriate content type such as article.
How can I create X or Twitter card metadata?
The generator includes X card tags for the title, description, and image alongside the Open Graph output.
How it works, with an example
Enter a title, description, image URL, page URL, content type, and site name. The preview is simulated and does not load the image, keeping your inputs local. Platform caches are not checked.
Practical example
An agency prepares a distinct social title, a description, and an image URL for a service page, then copies the generated metadata into that page’s head.
Additional use cases
- Draft share metadata for an article.
- Supply an existing image by absolute URL.
- Copy markup for a product page.
