Twitter Card Generator
Our Twitter Card Generator is designed to help you generate Twitter Card meta tags for your web page. Enter the necessary page details into the corresponding fields and then click the “Generate” button.
Twitter Cards are a feature provided by X (formerly known as Twitter) that allows website owners to attach images and additional text to the tweets containing links to their content.
To implement Twitter Cards, specific meta tags or markup need to be added to the HTML code of the webpage that corresponds to the link being shared. These meta tags, often referred to as "Twitter Card tags" or "Twitter Card markup," communicate information to Twitter about how the tweet should be displayed.
Here are some key Twitter Card tags:
- <meta name="twitter:card" content="..."> (required): Specifies the type of Twitter Card that should be used when a URL is shared on Twitter. The possible values for this property are:
- summary: A simple card with a title, description, and thumbnail.
- summary_large_image: Similar to the summary card but with a larger image.
- app: A card designed for mobile applications.
- player: A card for embedding audio or video media.
- <meta name="twitter:title" content="..."> (required): A concise title (maximum 70 characters) of the page mentioned on the Twitter Card.
- <meta name="twitter:description" content="..."> (optional): Provides a short description (maximum 200 characters) of the content of the page presented on the Twitter Card.
- <meta name="twitter:image" content="..."> (optional): Specifies the URL of the unique image representing the content of the page. Images for "summary" cards should have minimum dimensions of 144x144 or maximum of 4096x4096 pixels. Images for "summary_large_image" cards should have minimum dimensions of 300x157 or maximum of 4096x4096 pixels. Image size should not exceed 5MB. JPG, PNG, WEBP and GIF formats are supported, SVG is not supported.
- <meta name="twitter:site" content="..."> (optional): Specifies the Twitter account for the website.
These tags are added to the <head> section of the HTML code of the page you're sharing.
Twitter uses the User-Agent of Twitterbot (with version, such as Twitterbot/1.0), which can be used to create an exception in the robots.txt file. If the Twitterbot is not allowed to scan the page with card markup, no card will be shown. If an image URL is blocked, no thumbnail or photo will be shown.
By including these Twitter Card meta tags, you enhance the appearance of your shared links on Twitter, making them more visually appealing and informative. This can lead to increased engagement and a better overall experience for users who come across your content on the platform.
