Question 1

What is starlingbank.com's Open Graph type?

Accepted Answer

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

Question 2

Does starlingbank.com declare image dimensions?

Accepted Answer

starlingbank.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 starlingbank.com use for social previews?

Accepted Answer

starlingbank.com's social headline is "Starling | Award-winning bank accounts" (38 characters).

Question 4

What description does starlingbank.com use for social previews?

Accepted Answer

starlingbank.com's social description reads: "Transform the way you manage your money with Starling Bank. Enjoy personal and business banking online and at your fingertips, always. Apply in minute…" (152 characters).

Question 5

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

Accepted Answer

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

Question 6

What's the biggest issue with starlingbank.com'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 starlingbank.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`.
