Social Sharing & Link Previews

Sharing your video on social platforms can generate buzz and organic reach. Control how your link appears in previews to increase clicks.

• Customize the thumbnail – Choose an eye-catching image or create a dynamic thumbnail that reflects the viewer's data (for example, showing their name).

• Add Open Graph metadata – Set the og:title, og:description and og:image tags in your page's HTML so platforms like Facebook and LinkedIn display the correct preview.

• Test your preview – Use tools like Facebook's Sharing Debugger to check what your link looks like before posting.

• Use short links – Create a memorable, shareable short link using a URL shortener such as bit.ly or tinyurl.

Social platforms sometimes cache link previews. If you change your thumbnail, add a dummy parameter like ?version=2 to force the platform to fetch the new preview.
