What Are Open Graph Tags?
Open Graph tags are simple HTML meta tags that control how your web page looks when it’s shared on social media. They tell platforms like Facebook and X (Twitter) what to show in the link preview—such as the page title, featured image, and a short description.
By adding Open Graph tags, you can make every share look clean, consistent, and more clickable. It helps you grab attention, improve engagement, and avoid social platforms pulling the wrong image or messy text from your page.
Which Platforms Support Open Graph Tags?
Facebook created Open Graph (OG) tags, but today they’re used across many social platforms, messaging apps, and tools. They help each platform pull the right title, image, and description to create a clean, clickable link preview.
Here are the most common platforms and services that use OG tags:
- Facebook: Builds the full share preview (title, image, description).
- X (Twitter): Uses OG tags when Twitter Card tags are missing.
- LinkedIn: Displays professional-looking previews using OG data.
- Pinterest: Uses OG details to improve pin previews and content context.
- WhatsApp: Generates link previews from OG tags in chats.
- Telegram: Creates rich previews for shared links in messages.
- Slack: Shows link preview cards using OG information.
- Reddit: Pulls OG data for link post previews.
- Search Engines (in some cases): May use OG signals to enhance how pages appear in results.
- CMS tools (like WordPress): Often support OG tags through plugins or built-in settings.
Using Open Graph tags ensures your content looks consistent everywhere it’s shared—helping you earn more clicks, better engagement, and a more polished brand presence.
