Setting OG parameters Shared page with OGs set
OG meta tags can also be set up in WordPress. In the Yoast SEO plugin, the settings look like this:
Setting up OG in WordPress
Google also downloads meta tags from OG columns for its networks (Google+, Google News, etc.)
og:image – the image that is being shared. Size is important, upload a size of 1200×628 px (this is the optimal size for Facebook)
og:title – title, generally should not be longer than 70 characters
og:description – description up to 155 characters
og:type – the type of page you are sharing. For example, a employment database company blog would be better labeled as article. Complete list of all types .
og:url – here you can set what URL will be shown to users.
But there can be many more meta tags. For example, for language localization (og:locale).
Will it be possible to share your site?
Check how your website is doing when it comes to sharing. Facebook's Debugger tool can help . It will show you what the page is downloading and what errors you should fix.
For example, we have the wrong image for the article about the IEA . When we shared the article, we uploaded a special photo for it to better match the required size.Page setup error
Don't delay making edits. Posts will no longer be editable starting July 18, 2017. As we are used to, Facebook will implement this change gradually.
