TikTok Link Preview Meta Tags

Which meta tags TikTok reads for link previews

Primary Open Graph tags

TikTok uses standard OG tags only – no platform-specific tags:

Tag Used for
og:title Preview title
og:description Description text
og:image Preview image
og:url Canonical URL

Fallback behavior

When OG tags are missing:

Missing tag Falls back to
og:title <title> element
og:description <meta name="description">
og:image No image shown

Link-in-bio considerations

The link-in-bio feature uses the same OG tag extraction. When users tap a bio link, TikTok may show a preview card before navigating. Setting og:title, og:description, and og:image correctly improves how your bio link destination appears.

Recommended minimal setup

<meta property="og:title" content="Your Page Title">
<meta property="og:description" content="A brief description of the page">
<meta property="og:image" content="https://example.com/image.jpg">

TikTok renders a dark-themed, mobile-optimized card with the image, title, and domain.
