meta name="og:title" VS meta property="og:title"? [closed]

Question

I'm actually creating SEO properties for a website owned by the company I work.

http://animoetc.com

I attempted to create OpenGraph entries that work with Facebook and other social stuff. But I've used meta name="og:__", that seems to work, but now I'm confused because many sites use meta property="og:__" instead.

So, is there a difference between both?

That question did not help me much: Whats the difference between meta name and meta property?

Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

The meta property is a standard defined in Open Graph Protocol, the other is a simple HTML attribute – see this – that all search engines recognize, and its value does not need to start with the structure og: (which it is precisely the acronym of Open Graph).
