How can I change the default image shown when sharing my Webflow website on platforms like LinkedIn?

To change the default image shown when sharing your Webflow website on platforms like LinkedIn, you'll need to set the Open Graph image for each page of your site.

Open Graph is a protocol that allows you to control how your website's information is displayed when shared on social media platforms. By specifying an Open Graph image, you can ensure that your desired image is shown when someone shares your website's link.

To set the Open Graph image in Webflow, follow these steps:

1. Select the page you want to set the Open Graph image for in the Webflow Designer.
2. In the right sidebar, click on the "Page Settings" tab.
3. Scroll down to the "Open Graph Settings" section.
4. Click on the "Add Image" button.
5. Upload or choose the image you want to use as the Open Graph image. It's recommended to use an image with a resolution of 1200x630 pixels, as this is the ideal size for most social media platforms.
6. Once the image is uploaded, select it and click "Save" to apply the changes.

Repeat these steps for each page of your website that you want to have a specific Open Graph image.

It's worth noting that social media platforms like LinkedIn may cache the Open Graph data, so it might take some time for the new image to appear when sharing your website. If you're not seeing the updated image immediately, you can use LinkedIn's "Post Inspector" tool to preview how your website will be displayed when shared and to refresh the cached image.

By setting the Open Graph image for your Webflow pages, you can have more control over how your website appears when shared on platforms like LinkedIn, making it more visually appealing and engaging to potential viewers.
