Missing Open Graph tags

Open Graph tags are short lines of code in a page's HTML that control what title, description, and image appear when someone shares your page link on LinkedIn, Slack, WhatsApp, iMessage, or other platforms.

Why this matters

Without Open Graph tags, shared links may appear as plain text or a blank box with no image on some platforms, which can make them less eye-catching and your content look less polished.

How to fix it

Add og:title, og:description, and og:image meta tags to each page. Most website platforms have a built-in field for this in the page settings, or it can be added through an SEO plugin.
