# Social share previews

> Make your links look great when they're shared on Facebook, X, WhatsApp, and other apps — with the right image, title, and description.

When someone shares one of your pages on social media or a chat app, that app shows a **preview card** — usually a large image, the page title, and a short description. A good preview makes your link look professional and gets far more clicks than a plain link.

<Note>
  Glowply builds these preview cards for every page automatically, using your page's title, description, and main image. Most of the time the only thing worth setting is a good **share image**. For the title and description themselves, see [How your pages appear in search](/en/marketing/seo/search-appearance).
</Note>

## How the share image is chosen

For any page, Glowply picks the preview image in this order and uses the first one it finds:

1. The **share image** you set on that specific page's **SEO** settings
2. The page's **main image** (for a product, its main photo)
3. Your **site-wide default** share image, set under **Marketing (التسويق) → SEO (تحسين محركات البحث)**

So set a site-wide default once, and it covers every page that doesn't have its own image.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open the page's SEO settings">
    Edit the page or product, and open its **SEO** settings.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Choose a share image">
    Pick a clear, attractive image — your logo, a product photo, or a banner. Upload it or choose one from your **Media library (مكتبة الوسائط)**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Save and publish">
    Save the page. Your links now show a tidy preview wherever they're shared.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<h2 id="facebook">
  When you share on Facebook (and WhatsApp)
</h2>

Facebook — and chat apps like WhatsApp that read the same details — show a large preview card with your image, title, and description.

* **Best image size:** **1200 × 630 pixels** (a wide, landscape shape).
* **Image format:** use a **JPG or PNG** image. Some other formats won't display.

<Tip>
  If you share a page and an **old image** (or no image) appears, the social app is showing a cached copy it saved earlier. Re-share the link after a little while, or use the platform's own "refresh/scrape" tool for sharing, and it will pick up your new image.
</Tip>

<h2 id="x">
  When you share on X
</h2>

X (formerly Twitter) shows a **large-image card**, so your posts stand out in the feed. Glowply generates this automatically using the same image, title, and description as your other previews.

* **Best image size:** **1200 × 600 pixels**.
* Set a different image per page in the same **SEO** settings if your main photo doesn't look right cropped for X.

<Tip>
  Add a strong share image to your most-shared pages first — your home page, top products, and anything you promote on Instagram, Facebook, or WhatsApp. A good preview image can noticeably increase clicks.
