When sharing your content on platforms like Facebook, LinkedIn, and WhatsApp, Open Graph tags tell the platform which title, image, and description to use in your link preview. Without properly defined Open Graph tags, your content may look incomplete or unappealing when shared.
Our Open Graph Generator helps you create Open Graph meta tags easily, without writing code manually. Simply fill in your content details, select a type (like Product, Video, or Website), and add one or multiple image URLs. The tool then writes your entries as HTML meta tags, with special characters escaped, ready to paste into your site’s <head> section.
Giving platforms a clear title, image, and description can make your links look more professional and engaging, which may help click-through rates, engagement, and brand credibility.

Add Images:
-
Under “No Of Image”, select how many you want to include (1-10).
-
Fill in one Image URL field for each image (1-10). Fields you leave empty are skipped.
-
Each filled URL becomes an og:image tag, which platforms can use for the preview image when your content is shared.
-
Generate Tags:
The tags appear in the result box below the form and update as you type, paste or change a field. Empty fields are left out.
-
Copy the Output:
Select the code in the output box and copy it, or use the “Copy to Clipboard” button. The output box is read-only, so to change a tag, edit the matching form field above.
💡 Pro Tip: Once you’ve added your tags to a live page, check it in the Sharing Debugger from Facebook to see how the social preview looks there.
Example Output
Here’s an example of the Open Graph meta tags generated by this tool:
<meta property="og:title" content="Example Page Title">
<meta property="og:type" content="website">
<meta property="og:image" content="https://example.com/images/preview1.jpg">
<meta property="og:image" content="https://example.com/images/preview2.jpg">
<meta property="og:url" content="https://example.com/page-url">
<meta property="og:description" content="A brief description of this page content.">
<meta property="og:site_name" content="My Website Name">
Simply copy and paste these tags into your HTML <head> section. Platforms that read Open Graph tags can then use them for link previews, though each platform decides how a preview is displayed.
