Everything you need to perfect your links

Sharing a link is the cheapest marketing you will ever do — if the preview looks right. The checker covers the whole job: tags, image and cross-platform rendering.

OG Tag Checker

Audit every Open Graph tag on any page — og:title, og:description, og:image, og:url and Twitter Card tags — with clear pass / warn / fail verdicts and the exact fix for each problem.

OG Image Checker

Go beyond tag presence: we load your actual og:image, measure its dimensions, weigh its file size and flag the mistakes that make WhatsApp drop previews or X shrink them to a thumbnail.

Open Graph Tester

See live link previews for X, Facebook, LinkedIn, Discord and WhatsApp side by side — the closest thing to pasting your URL into every app, without opening five apps.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is an OG image checker?

An OG image checker is a free tool that inspects the Open Graph metadata on a webpage and shows how that link will appear when shared on social platforms. Paste a URL and it reads your og:title, og:description and og:image tags, then renders live previews for X, Facebook, LinkedIn, Discord and WhatsApp.

What is the ideal OG image size?

1200 × 630 pixels for X, Facebook and LinkedIn (LinkedIn crops to 1200 × 627). Use JPG or PNG, keep the file under 5 MB, and keep it under 300 KB for WhatsApp — larger files are often dropped entirely.

Why is my OG image not showing?

Four most common causes: og:image missing from the <head>, the image URL is relative instead of absolute, the file exceeds the platform limit, or the platform cached the old preview. Most platforms cache aggressively — re-run their debugger after fixing.

How do I fix missing Open Graph tags?

Add og:title, og:description, og:image and og:url meta tags to the <head> of every page you want shareable. The image URL must be absolute (starting with https://). Re-check after deploying.

How do I test Open Graph tags?

Paste your live URL into the checker above. Testing a live URL (not a local file) is essential — platforms fetch the deployed page.

What is the difference between Open Graph and Twitter Cards?

Open Graph (og:*) is what Facebook, LinkedIn, Discord and WhatsApp read. Twitter Cards (twitter:*) apply to X only. Under summary_large_image, X falls back to og:* when twitter:image is absent — correct Open Graph tags cover both.

Does WhatsApp support Open Graph images?

Yes, but stricter: keep the image under 300 KB and use a direct, publicly accessible URL, or the preview shows text only.

Is ogimagechecker.com free to use?

Yes, entirely free, no signup. There is also a free REST API (no API key, 10 requests/hour).
