What is Social Share Preview?

A social share preview tool shows you exactly how your web page will look when shared on social media platforms. It reads your Open Graph (og:) meta tag values and renders platform-accurate preview cards for Facebook, Twitter/X, LinkedIn, and WhatsApp, helping you optimize your social sharing appearance.

How to Use Social Share Preview

Enter your Open Graph title, description, image URL, and page URL in the input fields. The tool instantly renders four preview cards showing how your content will appear when shared on Facebook, Twitter/X, LinkedIn, and WhatsApp. Each preview uses platform-specific styling and layout so you can verify your social sharing appearance.

How Social Share Preview Works

Enter your OG metadata (title, description, image URL, page URL) and the tool renders four platform-specific preview cards in real time. Each card mimics the exact layout, typography, and image handling of its respective platform so you can see precisely how your content will appear when shared.

Common Use Cases

  • Preview how blog posts will appear when shared on Facebook
  • Check Twitter/X card appearance before publishing
  • Verify LinkedIn share previews for professional content
  • Test WhatsApp link preview for messaging shares
  • Optimize OG image and description for higher engagement

Frequently Asked Questions

What are Open Graph tags?

Open Graph (OG) tags are HTML meta tags that control how your content appears when shared on social media. The key tags are og:title, og:description, og:image, and og:url. They go in the <head> section of your HTML page.

Why does my social share preview look different from what I set?

Social platforms cache OG data aggressively. After updating your OG tags, use platform-specific debugging tools to clear the cache: Facebook Sharing Debugger, Twitter Card Validator, or LinkedIn Post Inspector.

What is the recommended OG image size?

The recommended OG image size is 1200x630 pixels (1.91:1 ratio). This works well across Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and WhatsApp. Minimum recommended size is 600x315 pixels. Images should be under 8MB.

Do I need different images for each social platform?

You can use one image (1200x630px) for all platforms. However, Twitter supports its own twitter:image tag if you want a different image there. Most platforms will fall back to og:image if platform-specific tags are not set.
