Understanding Open Graph Meta Tags
Open Graph meta tags are special HTML meta tags used to control how web pages are displayed when shared on social media platforms like Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter (partially), and others. They help define what title, description, image, and type of content will appear in the social media preview.
og:title: Defines the title of your page as it will appear when shared.
og:description: A short description that appears below the title in the social media preview.
og:image: The image URL that should appear in the preview (important for click-through rates).
og:url: The canonical URL of the page being shared.
og:type: Defines the type of content (e.g., website, article, video, music).
In short: Open Graph meta tags improve how your content looks on social media platforms, making it more engaging, clickable, and shareable.
