What Is An Open Graph Preview Tool?
An Open Graph preview tool shows how a web page may appear when shared on social platforms such as LinkedIn, Facebook, WhatsApp and X/Twitter. It helps you check the title, description, image and URL before sharing a link.
What Are Open Graph Tags?
Open Graph tags are HTML meta tags that describe how a page should look when shared on social media. The Open Graph protocol was originally introduced by Facebook and is documented at Open Graph Protocol.
What Are Twitter Cards?
Twitter Cards, now commonly used for X link previews, are meta tags that help control the title, description and image shown when a URL is shared. X provides official documentation for Cards.
