Defines the canonical URL of your page that will be used as its permanent ID in the graph. It's crucial for ensuring content consistency across sharing on social platforms.

Code Examples

Recommendations

    When specifying the og:url, always use the absolute path (including the http:// or https://) to avoid any misinterpretation by social platforms.
  • Match the Canonical URL
    Ensure the og:url matches the canonical link of your webpage, if specified. This consistency helps avoid duplicate content issues and strengthens page authority.
