Open Graph Generator: Perfect Your Social Media Previews
When you share a link on Facebook, Twitter, or LinkedIn, these platforms automatically generate a preview card showing a title, description, and image. This preview is powered by Open Graph (OG) meta tags—and they can make or break your click-through rates. Our free Open Graph Generator helps you create and preview these crucial tags before publishing.
What Are Open Graph Tags?
Open Graph is a protocol originally created by Facebook that allows web pages to become rich objects in social media. When implemented correctly, OG tags control exactly how your content appears when shared, ensuring your brand message is consistent across all platforms.
Facebook & Meta

Twitter/X Cards

WhatsApp & Others
Most messaging apps also read OG tags to generate link previews.

How do I test if my OG tags are working?
