Social Image (OG)


When someone shares your link, social platforms scrape your page for a preview image. If you don’t explicitly define one, they might pull a random, poorly cropped image—or worse, no image at all. ByTheWeb GEO solves this by letting you set a global default Social Media (OG) image for your entire site, while also giving you the power to easily override it on any specific post, page, or category. The plugin automatically injects the proper og:image and twitter:image meta tags into your code, ensuring your links always look polished and invite clicks across all platforms.

Why this matters?

  • Maximized Click-Through Rates (CTR): A highly relevant, properly cropped preview image is the single biggest factor in getting users to stop scrolling and click your link on social media.

  • Brand Control: Ensures that every time your URL is shared—whether by your marketing team or your readers—it represents your brand perfectly and professionally.

  • Fail-Safe Reliability: By setting a global fallback image, you guarantee that even older pages or archives without a featured image will still generate a beautiful social card when shared.

What’s Free?

  • Per-Page Customization: Easily upload or select a custom Open Graph image for any individual piece of content directly from the GEO meta box.

  • Global Fallbacks: Define a site-wide default social image in the main SEO settings to act as a safety net for pages without assigned images.

  • Automatic Tag Injection: Flawlessly generates and injects both Open Graph and Twitter Card image meta tags seamlessly into your site’s <head>.

  • Optimal Sizing Guides: Built-in UI reminders for the optimal 1200×630 pixel dimensions to prevent awkward cropping on social feeds.

What’s with Credits?

No Credits Required: Managing your Open Graph images and social metadata is a core SEO feature. Assigning and outputting these tags is 100% free to use and requires zero AI generation credits.
