Question 1

Why does microsoft.com's Twitter card show a small image?

Accepted Answer

microsoft.com sets `twitter:card` to `summary`, which renders the image as a small thumbnail. To get the large hero image format, the meta tag would need to be `<meta name="twitter:card" content="summary_large_image">`.

Question 2

What Twitter card type does microsoft.com use?

Accepted Answer

microsoft.com uses the `summary` card type. This renders a small square thumbnail next to the title and description.

Question 3

Does microsoft.com have a social share image?

Accepted Answer

No - microsoft.com does not currently set an `og:image` or `twitter:image`. Twitter / X will fall back to extracting an image from the page or render no preview image at all.

What headline does microsoft.com use for social previews?

Accepted Answer

microsoft.com's social headline is "Microsoft – AI, Cloud, Productivity, Computing, Gaming & Apps" (61 characters).

Question 5

What description does microsoft.com use for social previews?

Accepted Answer

microsoft.com's social description reads: "Explore Microsoft products and services and support for your home or business. Shop Microsoft 365, Copilot, Teams, Xbox, Windows, Azure, Surface and m…" (154 characters).

Question 6

What's the biggest issue with microsoft.com's Twitter / X preview?

No social share image found. Without an image, your shared links get significantly fewer clicks. Posts with images receive 2-3x more engagement.

Question 7

How can I improve microsoft.com'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` (1200×675), a clear `og:title` under 60 characters, and a 50-155 character `og:description`.
