Question 1

What is graphql.org's Open Graph type?

Accepted Answer

graphql.org declares `og:type` as `website`. This tells Slack how to categorize the content when generating a preview.

Question 2

What size is graphql.org's social share image?

Accepted Answer

graphql.org's `og:image` is 1200×630 pixels. Slack recommends 800×418 (1.91:1 aspect).

Question 3

What headline does graphql.org use for social previews?

Accepted Answer

graphql.org's social headline is "GraphQL | The API language for humans and agents" (48 characters).

Question 4

What description does graphql.org use for social previews?

Accepted Answer

graphql.org's social description reads: "GraphQL is a query language for APIs and a runtime for fulfilling those queries with your existing data." (104 characters).

Question 5

What site name does graphql.org display on social cards?

Accepted Answer

graphql.org sets `og:site_name` to "GraphQL". This appears as a small attribution label on Facebook, LinkedIn, and Slack.

Question 6

What's the biggest issue with graphql.org's Slack preview?

Accepted Answer

No favicon detected. Google search results show a small icon next to your domain. Without a favicon, your result looks generic and less trustworthy. Browsers and bookmarks also fall back to a default icon.

Question 7

How can I improve graphql.org's social previews?

Accepted Answer

Review the recommendations above - they list specific issues and provide ready-to-paste meta tag snippets. The highest-impact fixes are usually a properly sized `og:image` (800×418), a clear `og:title` under 60 characters, and a 50-155 character `og:description`.
