Question 1

Does npmjs.com declare an og:type?

Accepted Answer

No - npmjs.com does not set an `og:type` meta tag. Most platforms default to `website`, but explicitly declaring it ensures consistent rendering.

Question 2

Does npmjs.com declare image dimensions?

Accepted Answer

npmjs.com sets `og:image` but does not include `og:image:width` and `og:image:height`. Explicit dimensions let platforms render the preview faster without downloading the image first.

Question 3

What headline does npmjs.com use for social previews?

Accepted Answer

npmjs.com's social headline is "npm | Home" (10 characters).

Question 4

What's the biggest issue with npmjs.com's Slack preview?

Accepted Answer

No og:title - falling back to <title> tag. Set og:title to control social sharing independently from your page title.

Question 5

How can I improve npmjs.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` (800×418), a clear `og:title` under 60 characters, and a 50-155 character `og:description`.
