Findings

  • Brand name differs across channels — users see inconsistent identity
  • Add twitter:image — Twitter falls back to og:image only when it's larger than 300×157
  • No favicon link tags detected — browsers fall back to the generic globe
  • No Organization schema — Google can't render your logo in the knowledge panel
  • Only partial contact info discoverable — consider adding a dedicated contact page or mailto/tel link

How consistently your brand appears across channels — shared link previews, structured data, favicon, contact info.

Missing og:type
The og:type tag helps social platforms categorize the content.

The og:image URL could not be fetched. Social platforms won't be able to display it.

Why this matters

An unreachable og:image URL (404, DNS fail, slow timeout) means social platforms cache the failure and serve no image for hours.

Learn more

Social platforms (Facebook, Twitter) cache OG metadata aggressively — including failed image fetches. A momentarily-broken og:image can leave your shares imageless for hours. Test og:image URLs in Facebook's Sharing Debugger to force re-cache after fixing.

The og:type tag helps social platforms categorize the content.

Why this matters

Default og:type is 'website' but the right value (article, product, profile) unlocks richer metadata fields and higher engagement.

Learn more

og:type controls which other og: fields a platform respects. og:type=article enables og:article:published_time, author, and section — surfaced in news cards. og:type=product enables price/availability fields surfaced by Pinterest and shopping integrations. Default 'website' silently disables those.

Adding structured data helps search engines understand your content and can enable rich results.

Adding structured data helps search engines understand your content and can enable rich results.

Why this matters

Without schema.org markup, your pages can't appear as rich results (stars, FAQs, recipes) in search.

Learn more

Structured data is what unlocks rich snippets — review stars, FAQ accordions, recipe cards, breadcrumbs, etc. — that take up more SERP space and dramatically improve click-through. The schema.org vocabulary is well-documented and JSON-LD is the easiest format.

  • Product — e-commerce product pages
  • BreadcrumbList — navigation paths
