What is Open Graph
Open Graph is a protocol developed by Facebook that allows web pages to become rich objects in a social graph. By adding specific meta tags to the HTML of a webpage, developers can control how content appears when shared on social media platforms like Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and others.
These tags define elements such as the title, description, image, and URL, ensuring consistent and visually appealing previews. Open Graph helps improve engagement by making shared content more informative and attractive. It’s especially useful for marketers, bloggers, and developers who want to enhance how their content is presented across social networks.
