Five concrete examples of the Open Graph Generator in real use. Each one shows the situation, what you put in and what comes out, so you can copy the structure, swap in your details and adapt it this week.

Example 1: Fixing ugly Facebook share previews

The task: Fixing ugly Facebook share previews. You start from page URL, title, description and share image.. The tool returns HTML og: tag block ready to paste into your page head., giving you link previews with the right image, title and description instead of random scraping. you can edit rather than a blank page.

Make it yours: add one detail the tool cannot know - a real number, a name, a constraint - then read the result once end to end before you keep it.

Example 2: Adding share cards to a blog

How to Build Your Own Examples

  1. Take a task already on your calendar for this week.
  2. Write the brief in two sentences: the job and the audience.
  3. Generate, compare against the version you would have written manually.
  4. Save the prompt alongside the result so the second run takes seconds.

Getting More From Each Example

Most people stop at the first result. Generate a second version with one changed variable - length, tone or angle - and compare. The better version usually appears on the second run, not the first.

Frequently Asked Questions

How big should the share image be?

A landscape image around 1200 by 630 pixels works well across platforms.
