What size should an og:image be?

1200 by 630 pixels, served from an absolute URL. Most platforms reject images smaller than 200 by 200.

Do Open Graph tags affect rankings?

Not directly. They control how shares render, which drives click-through and the engagement signals that carry the indirect value.

Do I need both og and Twitter tags?

Twitter falls back to og tags when twitter: tags are missing, but declaring twitter:card explicitly gives you the large card format.

The tags that matter

When someone shares a link, the platform reads og:title, og:description, og:image and og:url and builds the card. If the image is missing the link shares as plain text and gets fewer clicks.
