Default website image for social sharing

Question

Is there any way to set a default image that appears when I share my website on Facebook? I've noticed that Facebook usually fetches the first image from the site to use as a thumbnail.

Answer 1

You need to set the open graph image meta tag:

<meta property="og:image" content="http://example.com/logo.jpg"> <meta property="og:image:type" content="image/png"> <meta property="og:image:width" content="1024"> <meta property="og:image:height" content="1024"> 

For more info check the docs

Answer 2

<meta property="og:image" content="http://example.com/lamb-full.jpg"> <meta property="og:image:type" content="image/jpeg"> <meta property="og:image:width" content="200"> <meta property="og:image:height" content="200"> 

Image size should be be at least 200px X 200px
