Question 1

What is sendgrid.com's Open Graph type?

Accepted Answer

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

Question 2

Does sendgrid.com declare image dimensions?

Accepted Answer

sendgrid.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 sendgrid.com use for social previews?

Accepted Answer

sendgrid.com's social headline is "SendGrid Email API and Email Marketing Campaigns" (48 characters).

Question 4

What description does sendgrid.com use for social previews?

Accepted Answer

sendgrid.com's social description reads: "SendGrid's trusted email API and marketing campaigns platform is now available through Twilio.com." (98 characters).

Question 5

What site name does sendgrid.com display on social cards?

Accepted Answer

sendgrid.com sets `og:site_name` to "Twilio". This appears as a small attribution label on Facebook, LinkedIn, and Slack.

Question 6

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

Accepted Answer

og:image uses a relative URL. Social platforms cannot resolve relative URLs. The image must be an absolute URL starting with https://.

Question 7

How can I improve sendgrid.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`.
