About Meta Tag Generator

When a link gets pasted into X, Facebook, Slack, or nearly any other app, the "unfurl" card that shows up (the title, description, and image) isn't guessed from the page's visible content. It's read from a handful of <meta> tags in that page's <head>: a plain <title>, a "description" tag, and the Open Graph (og:title, og:description, og:image, and friends) and Twitter Card properties that Facebook and X's crawlers specifically look for. Get one of these wrong or leave it out, and the shared link either falls back to an unhelpful default or shows no preview card at all.

This generator turns a short form (a page title, a meta description, an OG image URL, and a few optional extras like page URL, site name, and Twitter/X handle) into a complete, ready-to-paste block of meta tags, then shows a mocked-up preview of how that link would actually look shared on three different platforms. Switch between the X, Facebook, and Slack preview cards to see how each one lays out the same title/description/image differently: X's large-image card crops wider than Facebook's, and Slack's unfurl reads more like a compact message attachment than either.

The Twitter Card type toggle controls whether X renders a large, wide image above the text (summary_large_image, the more common and more eye-catching choice for a blog post or article) or a small square thumbnail beside it (summary, better suited to a page where the image isn't the main draw). Both card types get mirrored into the actual twitter:card meta tag in the output, so what you preview is what a real share will use.

Every field you type, and the tags generated from them, stay entirely in your browser tab. Nothing is uploaded to a server, logged, or stored, and the OG image URL you enter is never fetched to build the preview (the preview card always shows a placeholder in its image slot, not a real loaded image) since this tool's whole job is generating tags, not acting as an image proxy.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does the preview show a gray placeholder instead of my actual image?
This tool never fetches the OG image URL you type in: doing so would mean sending a request built from what you entered to wherever that image is hosted, which runs against the site's promise that nothing you enter ever leaves your browser. The placeholder box shows where the image will appear once a real platform (X, Facebook, Slack) actually loads it from the URL in your published meta tags.
What's the difference between the two Twitter Card types?
"Large image" (summary_large_image) shows a wide image above the title and description, the standard choice for articles, blog posts, and anything where the image is the main visual hook. "Summary" shows a small square thumbnail beside the text instead, which fits better when the image is secondary, like a logo or profile picture.
Do I need to fill in every field?
No. Only a title or description is needed to generate output. Page URL, site name, and your Twitter/X handle are optional; leaving any of them blank simply omits that specific meta tag (og:url, og:site_name, or twitter:site) from the output rather than including it empty.
Where do these meta tags go in my page?
Paste the generated block inside your page's <head> element, alongside your other <meta> and <title> tags. Order relative to other tags in <head> doesn't matter to crawlers: what matters is that each tag is present and well-formed.
Will Facebook, X, or Slack show my updated tags right away?
Not necessarily. Most platforms cache a link's preview the first time it's shared and won't re-check the page automatically. If you update your meta tags after a link has already been shared once, use that platform's own debugging tool (e.g. Facebook's Sharing Debugger, X's Card Validator) to force it to re-scrape the page.
Is anything I type here uploaded or stored anywhere?
No. The form fields, the generated meta tags, and the preview cards are all built entirely with client-side JavaScript in your browser tab, so nothing is sent to a server, logged, or saved anywhere, and refreshing the page clears everything.
