I have a WordPress website and where I want to set the custom title, description and image for each URL so that when someone share the URL than they see the content and image which is I predefine. Is it possible? I tried couple of plugin but stuck with it more and more. Anybody can tell me how can I do it.
For SEO, I have used the Wordpress SEO by Yoast which allows you to do that on a previous project to great effect.
For Facebook to read the title, description and images for sharing, Opengraph tags have to be generated. For more about opengraph tags, refer to the Facebook Developer Guide on using proper opengraph tags. The Yoast SEO plugin does generate the relevant opengraph tags for sharing.
Specifically the Yoast plugin changelog enhancements include:
Added Facebook / OpenGraph title input and Google+ title input and image upload field to Social tab.
Added Facebook / OpenGraph title input for the homepage on SEO -> Social settings page.
Changed Facebook / OpenGraph default image and homepage image input fields to use the media uploader.

We are having a problem with Facebook share not showing the correct picture, meta title and description.
Ex. something.com/blog/post/examplePostName/ is showing meta title and description of the something.com/blog/ parent page.
When we view the source for each of these two pages everything looks correct meta, og:graph, twitter card, but the sharer on the page (AddThis) is still not pulling the right stuff.
When we tried it out on the Facebook debugger page it is showing the correct meta, but sharing from the page (by clicking on AddThis) is still pulling the parent page meta.
Did anyone have this issue?
Could it be that we missed something in the blog app settings?
We figured this out.
We had a serverside script in our default.aspx file writing the canonical links. That was causing the issue. As soon as it was removed the facebook sharer was working fine. Great blog module!

The title, description, caption and image field of FBSDKShareLinkContent have been deprecated. Please take appropriate action to remove usage of them.
How to set Content title and description now? Can anyone suggest something to make it work.
Thanks in advance!
You can't, the Android-Sharing facebook documentation says:
When you implement sharing, your app should not pre-fill any content
to be shared. This is inconsistent with Facebook Platform Policy, see
Facebook Platform Policy, 2.3.
From Facebook Platform Policy
Don't prefill captions, comments, messages, or the user message parameter of posts with content a person or business didn’t create,
even if the person can edit or remove the content before sharing. You
may use our Share Dialogs to prefill a single hashtag in a post, but
don't prefill any content a person or business didn't create via the
API.
Answering my own question.
What I did is I just made an html page and passed the values in meta tag for the attributes "content", "description" and "title" dynamically and gave the url of html page in shareLinkContent > SetContentUrl method.
So when shared it automatically picked the values from that html page.
This Worked in my case.
Happy Coding..!
I'm trying to improve the SEO of a website. I'm using the tool WooRank to improve some aspects of this web, and I created a blog with Blogger. I have put an image in my homepage with a link to my blog in Blogger, but WooRank keeps warning me that I don't have a blog. My blog has links to my website in my profile, and in the entries. Some SEO tools can find my blog from a landing page, linking to the blogspot URL from an image in the header and in the footer, but some not. Any ideas on how can I solve this issue?
Try adding a text link using the anchor text 'blog', or if you haven't already, include the word 'blog' in the alt attribute on the image that you link out to the blog.

Try submitting the link to The Google URL submitter for a highlight at indexing. Also, make sure your robots.txt is not blocking the webpage or the folder from being indexed. If your website does not have a robots file, add a blank one.
Focus on Google, once they index the page, the other engines will follow.
I want to make a news site at my homepage. Therefore I am using the extension news system with the key news from extension manager.To embed a news article with image in teaser was no problem, but how to embed a youtube video in the teaser?
Somebody got an idea? Who is able to help me?
You could extend your extension with a custom extension by adding a field for YouTube IDs. Then overwrite the template path to a new Teaser template via TS and copy/edit this template to show your YouTube iframe.
I one of my project I am using the sharing buttons for multiple article. I need the link share urls for facebook, twitter and google plus.
To Facebook I can pass every parameter (title,image, description) to share URL. using following code
http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?s=100&p[title]=<?php echo $title;?>&p[summary]=<?php echo $summary;?>&p[url]=<?php echo $url; ?>&&p[images][0]=<?php echo $image;?>'
But For google plus I can pass only two parameters. (url and lang code). You can check the documentation here.
google share link api
Google itself crawl the webpage and take the title, description and image from webpage.
Problem:
I am loading content through javascript so when crawler came page web page. It is not able to collect the information.
You can find answer for you question by visiting below url:

Here is the url you could do after 3 years
