Frequently Asked Questions about Twitter Cards
Find answers to common questions about Twitter Cards and how to implement them on your website.
What are Twitter Cards?
Twitter Cards are a feature that allows you to attach rich media experiences to tweets that link to your content. When users share a link to your content on Twitter, the Card can display a preview with your title, description, and image, making your shared links more engaging and clickable.
Why are Twitter Cards important for my website?
Twitter Cards enhance your presence on social media by making your content more visually appealing when shared. They can increase engagement rates, drive more traffic to your website, and provide a better user experience for people seeing your links on Twitter.
What's the difference between Twitter Cards and Open Graph?
Twitter Cards are specific to Twitter's platform, while Open Graph is a broader protocol used by Facebook and other social media platforms. Twitter will use Open Graph tags as a fallback if Twitter Card metadata is missing, but for optimal display on Twitter, it's best to include Twitter-specific tags.
What types of Twitter Cards are available?
The main types include Summary Card (small image), Summary Card with Large Image, App Card (for mobile apps), and Player Card (for video/audio content). The most commonly used are Summary and Summary with Large Image cards for website content.
How do I implement Twitter Cards on my website?
Add specific meta tags to the <head> section of your web pages. Essential tags include twitter:card (card type), twitter:title (page title), twitter:description (brief summary), and twitter:image (URL to an image). Our Twitter Card Preview tool can help you verify your implementation.
Why isn't my Twitter Card showing when I share my link?
This could be due to various reasons: your meta tags might be missing or incorrect, your image might not meet Twitter's requirements, or Twitter might be caching an older version. Use our tool to verify your meta tags, ensure your image meets size requirements, and try clearing Twitter's cache by using their card validator tool.
What image sizes should I use for Twitter Cards?
For optimal display: Summary Card images should be at least 144x144 pixels (1:1 ratio), and Summary Card with Large Image should use images at least 300x157 pixels (2:1 ratio). Twitter recommends using images less than 5MB in size and in JPG, PNG, WEBP, or GIF format.
Can I test my Twitter Cards before publishing?
Yes! That's exactly what our Twitter Card Preview tool helps you do. Enter your URL to see how it will appear when shared on Twitter. This allows you to identify and fix any issues before your content goes live.
