What is an OG Image?
Open Graph (OG) images are special meta tags that control how your webpage appears when shared on social media platforms. The og:image
tag specifies the image that will be displayed in the preview. Without proper OG images, social platforms may use random images from your page or default placeholders, which can hurt engagement.
