Open Graph Meta Tags

og:audio:secure_url

Learn how to use the og:audio:secure_url meta tag to improve your site.

A secure URL to an audio file to accompany your object within the Graph. Used when the standard og:audio tag URL does not support SSL.

Code Examples

<meta property="og:audio:secure_url" content="https://example.com/music/song.mp3" />
A valid, secure URL to an MP3 file that is optimized for web usage and has broad format support.
<meta property="og:audio:secure_url" content="http://example.com/music/song.mp3" />
A URL using HTTP, which is not secure and may not be supported on all platforms enforcing secure connections.
<meta property="og:audio:secure_url" content="https://example.com/podcast/episode1.ogg" />
A secure URL to an audio file in OGG format, which offers good quality and is supported by many browsers.
<meta property="og:audio:secure_url" content="https://example.com/music/highquality.wav" />
While secure, WAV files are typically very large and not optimized for web usage, potentially leading to slow loading times.

Recommendations

  • Ensure SSL Certification
    Make sure that the secure URL provided has a valid SSL certificate to avoid security warnings on most browsers.
  • Use Alongside og:audio
    Always use og:audio:secure_url in conjunction with the og:audio tag to ensure compatibility with platforms that might not default to secure protocols.
  • Audio Format Compatibility
    Check that the audio format of the file is widely supported for an optimal user experience across various platforms.
  • Verify Audio Load Time
    Ensure that the audio file is optimized for web use to prevent long load times, which can negatively impact user engagement and sharing.
