Free Twitter Card generator. Choose a summary or large-image card and fill in the title, description, image and handles to generate twitter: meta tags, with a live preview. Copy them into your <head>.

What Twitter Cards do

Twitter Card tags (<meta name="twitter:...">) control how a link looks when shared on X (formerly Twitter): a rich card with a title, description and image instead of a plain link. Like Open Graph, they don't affect Google rankings, but they improve how your content looks in a feed, which drives clicks.

X reads Twitter Card tags first and falls back to Open Graph tags for any values you don't specify — so you can define OG tags and only add the Twitter-specific bits.

Card types and required tags

The two common twitter:card types:

Type Use for Image
summary Most pages Small square (min 144×144)
summary_large_image Articles, visual content Large 1200×628 (2:1)

A typical setup:

<meta name="twitter:card" content="summary_large_image">
<meta name="twitter:title" content="Best Running Shoes 2026">
<meta name="twitter:description" content="12 shoes tested and ranked.">
<meta name="twitter:image" content="https://example.com/img/shoes.jpg">
<meta name="twitter:site" content="@yourhandle">

Common mistakes

  • Choosing summary_large_image but supplying a tiny image, so it renders as a small card.
  • Using a relative image URL — it must be absolute https://.
  • Duplicating every OG value when you could let X fall back to OG and only override what differs.
  • Forgetting twitter:card itself — without it, no card renders at all.
  • Not validating with the Card Validator before relying on the preview.

Frequently asked questions

What's the difference between the card types?

summary shows a small square thumbnail beside the text; summary_large_image shows a full-width banner image above it. Use the large image for articles and landing pages.

Do I still need Open Graph tags?

Twitter/X falls back to Open Graph tags when Twitter-specific ones are missing, but adding twitter: tags gives you precise control over the card and handles.
