Frequently Asked Questions

What is an Open Graph preview tool? ⌵
An Open Graph preview tool lets you see how a webpage is likely to appear when it's shared on social media or messaging platforms. It reads publicly available metadata such as the page title, description and preview image, then generates a realistic social sharing preview.
What metadata does this tool analyse? ⌵
The tool analyses a wide range of webpage metadata, including Open Graph tags (such as og:title, og:description, og:image, og:url and og:type), Twitter Card tags, canonical URLs, standard HTML metadata and other information that influences social sharing.
Can I preview any website? ⌵
Yes. Simply enter the URL of any publicly accessible webpage. The tool securely retrieves the page metadata through KitSlick's analysis service, then generates preview cards based on the information it finds.
Does this tool change my website? ⌵
No. This tool is completely read-only. It only requests publicly available metadata from the webpage you enter and never modifies your website or its content.
Does this tool upload my website? ⌵
No. This tool only retrieves publicly available metadata from the URL you provide. It does not upload, modify or store your website content. The request is used only to analyse the page and generate the preview.
Why isn't my Open Graph image showing? ⌵
Missing preview images are usually caused by incorrect image URLs, inaccessible files, unsupported formats, images that are too small, or metadata that hasn't yet been refreshed by social platforms. This tool helps identify many of these common issues.
What size should an Open Graph image be? ⌵
For the best compatibility, Open Graph images should typically be 1200 × 630 pixels using a 1.91:1 aspect ratio. This size is widely recommended for Facebook, LinkedIn, X (formerly Twitter) and many other platforms.
Why doesn't my preview exactly match Facebook or LinkedIn? ⌵
Every platform applies its own rendering rules. Some crop images differently, shorten descriptions, ignore certain metadata, or cache previews for extended periods. This tool provides a close approximation based on the metadata currently available.
What is the difference between Open Graph and Twitter Cards? ⌵
Open Graph is an open metadata standard originally introduced by Facebook and now supported by many platforms. Twitter Cards use additional metadata to customise how links appear specifically on X (formerly Twitter), although many Twitter Cards can also fall back to Open Graph tags.
Does Open Graph improve SEO? ⌵
Open Graph metadata is not a direct Google ranking factor. However, well-configured social previews can improve click-through rates, increase engagement when content is shared, and help present a more consistent brand experience.
Do I need both Open Graph tags and Twitter Cards? ⌵
Ideally, yes. Including both Open Graph metadata and Twitter Card tags helps ensure your pages display correctly across a wider range of social media platforms and messaging applications.
Can I use this to debug Open Graph tags? ⌵
Yes. This tool acts as an Open Graph checker by displaying detected metadata, preview images and social cards, making it easier to spot missing tags, incorrect values or other configuration problems.
Is this Open Graph preview tool free? ⌵
Yes. Like all KitSlick browser tools, it's completely free to use with no registration, subscriptions or usage limits.
