Open Graph Checker

Validates social preview tags and shows the share card.

About the Open Graph Checker

When a link is shared on Facebook, LinkedIn, WhatsApp or X, the preview comes from Open Graph and Twitter Card tags. The checker reads them and shows a preview, so a missing image or title is caught before you share.

How it works

  • We fetch the URL from our server like a crawler: redirects are followed (up to five), private and internal addresses are refused, and large pages are capped.
  • The checks run on the live HTML and response headers. Nothing is guessed: every finding shows what we observed.
  • Results are not stored unless you are signed in, in which case they appear in your dashboard history.

Frequently asked questions

Why does an old image still show?

Platforms cache previews. After fixing tags, refresh the cache with each platform's own debugging tool.
