About the Open Graph Generator
The Open Graph Generator builds all the meta tags Facebook, LinkedIn, WhatsApp, Discord and other platforms need to display a beautiful preview card whenever your URL is shared. Fill in the title, description, image URL and a few optional fields and the tool outputs a ready-to-paste block of <meta property="og:..."> tags — plus matching <meta name="twitter:..."> tags for X/Twitter. Correctly implemented Open Graph is the difference between a share that shows a polished branded card and one that shows a broken URL preview.
Open Graph (OG) is a protocol invented by Facebook in 2010 and adopted by most social platforms since. It uses <meta property="og:*"> tags in the <head> of a page to describe how that page should render when shared. The core tags are og:title, og:description, og:image, og:url and og:type. Twitter/X uses a similar but separate set of tags (twitter:card, twitter:image, twitter:title, twitter:description) that override OG on their platform when both are present.

Zero external dependencies

Common Use Cases
The Open Graph Generator is trusted by students, writers, marketers, developers and everyday users worldwide. Here are some of the most common scenarios where it saves time and delivers reliable results.
Marketing pages
Every landing page for a campaign should have unique OG tags matching the campaign creative.
Blog articles
Each article deserves its own og:title, og:description and og:image for maximum share appeal.
E-commerce products
Product OG tags include price and availability via product:price:amount and product:availability tags.
YouTube-linked pages
Combine og:type=video.other with og:video:url to render inline video previews in Facebook shares.
App download pages
og:type=website with an og:image showing the app UI drives higher install rates from shared links.
Best Practices & Tips
Use 1200×630 pixel images
The universally-supported aspect ratio. Smaller images may be cropped or skipped.
Under 5 MB per image
Facebook may refuse to fetch images above 5 MB, causing broken previews.
Absolute URLs everywhere
og:url and og:image must be full https:// URLs — relative paths will be rejected.
One card style per platform
Do not stuff both twitter:card=summary and summary_large_image — pick one for X/Twitter.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which platforms use Open Graph?
Facebook, LinkedIn, WhatsApp, Discord, Slack, Signal, Telegram, Skype and many others. X/Twitter uses its own tags but falls back to OG when Twitter-specific tags are missing.
What image size should I use?
1200×630 pixels at a 1.91:1 aspect ratio is the recommended size for all major platforms.
How long can og:description be?
Roughly 200 characters is safe. Longer descriptions get truncated on Facebook and LinkedIn.
Do I need both OG and Twitter tags?
Yes, ideally. Twitter tags override OG on X, so specifying both guarantees the best experience everywhere.
How do I refresh a cached preview?
Facebook Sharing Debugger, LinkedIn Post Inspector and Twitter Card Validator all offer "re-scrape" buttons that force a fresh fetch.
Do OG tags help SEO?
Indirectly. Google does not use OG tags for ranking, but higher social CTR increases traffic and engagement signals over time.
What is og:type?
A string describing the nature of the URL. Common values: website, article, product, video.other, profile.
Can I set different images for Facebook and Twitter?
Yes — og:image sets the default; twitter:image overrides it on X/Twitter only.

Privacy, Security & Trust
The Open Graph Generator is built with a privacy-first philosophy. Every calculation, encoding and transformation runs entirely inside your web browser using standard JavaScript APIs — nothing you type, paste or upload is transmitted to our servers, logged, cached or shared with any third party. You can verify this yourself by opening your browser's developer tools and watching the Network tab while you use the tool: you will see zero outbound requests for the actual computation.
This client-side architecture matters most when you are working with sensitive text — an unpublished blog draft, a legal notice under embargo, an internal meta description, or a password you are about to set. On many competing sites, similar tools quietly send every keystroke to their servers for "processing", which becomes a real leak vector. Ours does not, and it never will.
The tool is completely free with no daily quotas, no watermarks and no forced sign-up. It works on desktop and mobile browsers, on slow and fast connections, and continues to function offline once the page has loaded. All source code, formulas and character tables used by the tool are standard, well-documented and independently verifiable — which is essential for anything you plan to use for legal, medical, financial or educational purposes.
