Social Media Meta Tag Generator

Enhance the impact of your article’s social media sharing with Social Meta, a Joomla Content Plugin that converts your article URL into a rich social media card with an image when shared on platforms such as Twitter, Facebook, WhatsApp, Telegram, and more.

Social Meta automatically generates the appropriate and commonly used social media meta tags. By having the correct meta tags in place, you can significantly improve the effectiveness of your content sharing on social platforms, which can positively impact your conversion rates and click-through rates.
