Question 1

What is strava.com's Open Graph type?

Accepted Answer

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

Question 2

Does strava.com have a social share image?

Accepted Answer

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

Question 3

What headline does strava.com use for social previews?

Accepted Answer

strava.com's social headline is "Strava | Running, Cycling & Hiking App - Train, Track & Share" (61 characters).

Question 4

What description does strava.com use for social previews?

Accepted Answer

strava.com's social description reads: "Strava connects millions of runners, cyclists, hikers, walkers and other active people through the sports they love – all on our mobile app and websit…" (152 characters).

Question 5

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

Accepted Answer

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

Question 6

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

Accepted Answer

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 strava.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`.
