How to use Meta Tag Generator
The Meta Tag Generator produces a complete set of SEO, Open Graph, and Twitter Card meta tags from a simple form. Fill in your page title, description, canonical URL, and social image, and instantly get a ready-to-paste block for your <head>. Fields you leave blank are omitted, so the output stays clean, and all values are escaped to keep your markup valid. It runs entirely in your browser.
- Enter your page title, description, and canonical URL.
- Add an author, social image, site name, and Twitter handle if you have them.
- Choose the Open Graph type and robots directive.
- Click "Generate meta tags" and copy the block into your <head>.
Your data never leaves your device — 100% private processing.
SEO, Open Graph, and Twitter tags explained
Search engines read the standard title and meta description to display your result, while social platforms read their own namespaces: Facebook and LinkedIn use Open Graph (og:title, og:description, og:image), and Twitter/X uses twitter: tags. Providing all three ensures your page looks correct in search results and shows a rich card when shared. The generator mirrors your title and description across each namespace so you only type them once.
The Twitter card type
Twitter supports a compact "summary" card and a larger "summary_large_image" card. The generator picks summary_large_image automatically when you supply a social image, and falls back to summary when you do not, so the card always matches the assets you have. Adding a 1200×630 image gives the best result across Open Graph and Twitter, since both platforms can reuse the same og:image and twitter:image URL.
