Open Graph Meta Tags

og:title

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

Defines the title of your content as you want it to appear when shared on social platforms. The og:title meta tag is part of the Open Graph protocol and is crucial for social media SEO, as it determines the title text that appears when a page is shared on social platforms like Facebook, LinkedIn, and Twitter.

Code Examples

<meta property="og:title" content="The Ultimate Guide to Freshwater Fishing" />
A descriptive and enticing og:title that promises value and fits well within the character limits of most social platforms.

Recommendations

  • Keep it Concise but Descriptive
    Your og:title should be brief yet sufficiently descriptive to convey the essence of the content to the reader. It should ideally be under 60 characters to prevent truncating on smaller screens or social platforms.
  • Consistency with Page Title
    Although og:title can differ from the HTML <title> tag of the page, maintaining consistency between them can prevent confusion and reinforce brand recognition among users.
