## FAQ

### What are Twitter Cards?

Twitter Cards are rich media attachments that enhance tweets containing links. Instead of just a URL, cards display a title, description, and image. They're controlled by meta tags in your page's HTML (twitter:title, twitter:description, twitter:image).

### What types of Twitter Cards exist?

Main types: Summary Card (small image on left, text on right), Summary Card with Large Image (large image above text), and Player Card (for video/audio). Most content uses Summary with Large Image for maximum visual impact.

### What's the ideal Twitter Card image size?

For Summary Card with Large Image, use 1200x628 pixels (1.91:1 ratio). Minimum is 300x157 pixels. Images are cropped to fit, so keep important content centered. File size should be under 5MB.

### Do I need both Twitter Cards and Open Graph?

You can use both, but Twitter falls back to Open Graph tags if Twitter-specific tags aren't present. For full control, include both. Twitter-specific tags let you customize the Twitter experience differently from Facebook/LinkedIn.

### How do I validate my Twitter Cards?

Use Twitter's Card Validator tool to test your pages. It shows exactly how your card will appear and identifies any missing or invalid tags. Our preview tool gives you a quick visual check before using the official validator.

### Why isn't my Twitter Card showing?

Common issues: missing required tags (twitter:card is essential), images that are too small, pages blocked by robots.txt, or Twitter's cache showing old data. Use the Card Validator to diagnose specific issues with your implementation.
