Question 1

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

Accepted Answer

thestorygraph.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 thestorygraph.com use?

Accepted Answer

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

Question 3

What Twitter handle does thestorygraph.com associate with shared cards?

Accepted Answer

thestorygraph.com sets `twitter:site` to `@thestorygraph`. This handle is shown as attribution next to the card on Twitter.

Question 4

Does thestorygraph.com declare image dimensions?

Accepted Answer

thestorygraph.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 6

What description does thestorygraph.com use for social previews?
