How to Add Open Graph Tags in Wix (2026)
Open Graph tags control how your pages appear when shared on Facebook, LinkedIn, WhatsApp, Slack, and other platforms. Without them, those platforms show random text and no image. Wix has built-in social share settings that make it easy to set Open Graph metadata for every page — no code required for most use cases.
Why it matters
What this issue costs you
When someone shares your page on social media, Open Graph tags determine the headline, description, and image shown in the link preview. Shares with a clear image and compelling headline generate significantly more clicks than shares with no image or generic text. Open Graph tags also influence how some AI crawlers extract content metadata.
Step-by-step
How to fix: Missing Open Graph tags
Wix
- 1
Set social share info on a static page
In the Wix Editor, click "Pages & Menu". Hover over the page and click the three-dot menu (...) > "SEO Basics" (or "SEO (Google)"). Scroll to the "Social Share" section. Here you can set the og:title (social share title), og:description (social share description), and og:image (social share image). Upload or select an image that is at least 1200x630px for best display.

Set social share info on blog posts
In the blog post editor, click "SEO" in the sidebar. Scroll to the "Social Share" section. Set a custom title, description, and image for social sharing. If left blank, Wix uses the post title, meta description, and featured image as defaults — but setting them explicitly gives you more control.

Set social share info via Advanced SEO
For more granular control: in the page's SEO settings, go to "Advanced SEO" > "meta tags". Here you can manually add or edit og:title, og:description, og:image, og:type, and other Open Graph tags. This is useful if you want to set og:type to a specific value (e.g. "product" or "article") that Wix does not set by default.

Set default social share image for your site
To set a fallback image that appears when a page has no specific og:image: go to Dashboard > SEO > SEO Tools and look for "Social Share" or default image settings. This ensures every page has at least a branded image when shared, even if you forget to set one on individual pages.

FAQ
Common questions about missing open graph tags
What is the recommended og:image size for Wix?
Use images at least 1200x630px (1.91:1 aspect ratio) for optimal display on Facebook and LinkedIn. Images smaller than 600px wide will not display as a large preview card. Use JPEG or PNG format.
Do Open Graph tags affect my Google search rankings?
Not directly. Open Graph tags are used by social platforms and messaging apps, not by Google for ranking. However, better social previews drive more clicks and shares, which increases traffic and can indirectly benefit SEO through increased engagement and backlinks.
How do I test my Wix page Open Graph tags?
Use the Facebook Sharing Debugger (developers.facebook.com/tools/debug) or LinkedIn Post Inspector. Paste your page URL and these tools will show exactly what social platforms see. After updating tags, publish your Wix site and use the "Scrape Again" button in the Facebook debugger to clear cached data.
I set social share info but the old image still appears on Facebook. Why?
Facebook caches Open Graph data aggressively. After updating your tags and publishing the Wix site, go to the Facebook Sharing Debugger and click "Scrape Again" to force Facebook to re-fetch your page metadata. LinkedIn also caches — use the LinkedIn Post Inspector to refresh.
