Use the social preview to preview your post on social platforms

Social previews visualize what your content will look like when shared on social media. You can see right away if your image fits and whether your title and description will display well. This way you’ll see exactly what your potential visitors see! It’s the perfect opportunity to optimize your content, which then hopefully leads to more clicks.
