In-Depth Documentation

Architecture & best practices

The Impact of Open Graph Imagery on Social CTR

Studies on developer blogs and SaaS landing pages show that custom 1200x630 Open Graph preview cards yield 2.5x to 3.8x higher click-through rates (CTR) compared to generic fallback logos or cropped article screenshots. High-contrast headlines and brand domain badges signal authority and authenticity in social feeds.

Proper HTML Meta Tag Configuration

To ensure platforms crawl your generated card correctly, specify both og:image and twitter:card meta properties. Set og:image:width to 1200 and og:image:height to 630 so social scrapers can size the preview card instantly without downloading full image byte streams upfront.
