Question 1

What is an OG image?

Accepted Answer

The picture platforms show when your link is shared — on WhatsApp, LinkedIn, Facebook, iMessage, Slack. It is declared by an og:image meta tag on your page. Links with one get a card people tap; links without get a bare grey URL.

Question 2

Why 1200 × 630?

Accepted Answer

It is the 1.91:1 shape every major platform crops toward, at a resolution that stays sharp on high-density screens. One image at this size works everywhere; only X's small summary card and square formats crop it differently.

Question 3

How do I use the downloaded image?

Accepted Answer

Upload it to your website (any public folder), then add <meta property="og:image" content="https://yoursite.com/path/og-image.png"> to the page's head — the URL must be absolute. Then verify it with the link preview checker.

Question 4

Text on the image or text in the tags — which matters?

Accepted Answer

Both show: the image is the picture, og:title and og:description are the text under it. Putting your headline in the image too means it survives platforms that truncate titles — which is why this generator is headline-first.

Question 5

Can I make one per page?

Accepted Answer

Ideally yes — a card that names the page outperforms a generic logo card. For sites this studio builds, per-page OG images are generated automatically from each page's title; this tool is the manual version of exactly that.
