When you or others share a link to your site or sales page on social media platforms like Facebook or Twitter, the link can automatically display an image.
By adding a social image to your pages, you can control what visitors see when your site is shared on social platforms.
Adding social images for site pages
Here's how to add social images for your site pages on Podia:
From your Podia dashboard, click on Website in the sidebar menu.
Click on the Page settings icon next to the page you'd like to add a social media image for.
Upload the image you want to use across social platforms under the social media field from the left-hand menu.
Your social images should be at least 1200x630px (for better compatibility across all social media platforms) and up to 5MB.
