Link preview not showing: missing Open Graph tags

Polish · Polish · vibeliq reports this as “Your links look bare when shared”

Why it matters

These tags create the image-and-title card when your link is pasted into X, Slack, WhatsApp or iMessage. Without them your launch post is a naked URL.

How to check it yourself

Paste your link into Slack, WhatsApp or the X post box. A bare URL with no image and title means your Open Graph tags are missing.

What the fix involves

Add og:title, og:description and a 1200 by 630 og:image with an absolute URL, plus twitter:card set to summary_large_image.

How vibeliq checks it

We load your page the way a visitor's browser would, read what your server sends back, and look at a short list of well-known addresses on your site. If this turns up, your report explains it in plain English and gives you a prompt, written for Claude Code, Cursor, Lovable or whatever built your site, that fixes it in your actual codebase.
