When to Use Twitter Cards
Blog Posts & Articles
Summary Large Image cards are perfect for content marketing. The prominent image grabs attention in feeds, and a compelling title drives clicks to your articles.
Product Pages
Summary Cards work great for e-commerce. The compact format shows product image, name, and description without dominating the tweet.
Video & Podcast Content
Player Cards embed your media directly in tweets. Great for YouTube videos, podcast episodes, or streaming content (requires Twitter approval).
Mobile App Promotion
App Cards display app store ratings and direct download buttons. Perfect for app launches, updates, or ongoing user acquisition campaigns.
How It Works
Choose Your Card Type
Select the format that fits your content. Summary Large Image works best for articles and blog posts. Summary Card is better for products or when the image isn't the focus. Player Cards embed video/audio content directly.
Enter Your Content
Fill in your title (under 70 characters), description (under 200 characters), and image URL. Add your Twitter @username for site and creator attribution to build followers.
Preview Your Card
See exactly how your content will appear on Twitter with our live preview. Both Summary and Large Image formats are shown so you can compare how each looks.
Copy and Validate
Copy the generated meta tags to your page's <head> section. Use Twitter's Card Validator to verify everything works correctly. Note that Twitter caches cards, so changes may take a few minutes.
Twitter Card Best Practices
Use High-Quality Images
Twitter displays card images prominently. Use 1200x628px for Large Image cards and 400x400px for Summary cards. High-contrast, bright images perform best in crowded feeds. Test how your image looks when cropped.
Cache Takes Time to Clear
Twitter caches card data for up to 7 days. After updating meta tags, use the Card Validator to force a refresh. Without this, users will see your old card until the cache naturally expires.
Write for the Timeline
Twitter is fast-paced. Your title and description should create immediate curiosity or promise clear value. Questions, numbers, and emotional hooks work well. Keep it punchy - users are scrolling quickly.
Always Include @username
Adding twitter:site and twitter:creator helps Twitter attribute your content properly. It can also drive followers to your account when people see your cards. Use both when the brand and author are different.
