Twitter Card Generator: what to know

Twitter cards are the link previews on X: a title, description and image attached to a post that contains your URL. They're controlled by meta tags whose names still start with twitter:, such as twitter:card, twitter:title, twitter:description and twitter:image. The generator creates those tags from a short form, including image alt text, so you can paste them into your page's head.

The twitter:card value picks the layout. summary shows a small square thumbnail beside the text, and summary_large_image shows a wide image above it, which stands out more in a busy feed. X falls back to Open Graph tags for the title, description and image when the twitter: versions are missing, so if your page already has good og: tags, the card type is often the only tag you need to add.

Images for large cards work best at a 2:1 ratio, at least 300 × 157 pixels and commonly 1200 × 600 or the 1200 × 630 used for Open Graph. Use an absolute https URL. Like other apps, X caches cards, so a change can take time to appear on posts that already exist.

Popular uses

  • Making links stand out in posts on X
  • Choosing between small and large card layouts
  • Adding alt text to share images
  • Completing a page's social tags alongside Open Graph

Tips for the best result

  • Use summary_large_image for articles, products and anything with a strong image.
  • Reuse your Open Graph values to keep one source of truth.
  • Add twitter:site with your account handle if you want the card attributed to it.
