Frequently Asked Questions

What are Twitter Cards?
Twitter Cards are meta tags that control how your page appears when shared on Twitter/X. They define the card type, title, description, and image for link previews in tweets.
What card types are available?
Four types: "summary" (small thumbnail), "summary_large_image" (large image), "app" (app download), and "player" (video/audio). Most websites should use "summary_large_image" for maximum visibility.
Do Twitter Cards fall back to OG tags?
Yes. If Twitter-specific tags are missing, Twitter will use Open Graph tags as fallback. Having both is ideal, but OG tags alone will work for basic previews.
How do I test my Twitter Card?
Share your URL on Twitter/X to see the preview. You can also use third-party card validators. Note: Twitter's official Card Validator tool has limited public access.
