When you (or a listener) share your website or an episode on social media, the network shows a preview image. Podpage generates this for you automatically using your podcast or episode artwork — but you can change it, and you can fix it when the wrong image shows up.
Use a different image for your site
To use a different site-wide image than your podcast artwork:
- In your dashboard, go to Search Optimization → SEO Settings.
- Upload a new Social Sharing Image (recommended dimensions: 1200 x 650 pixels).
- Click Save.
For a single episode, go to Episodes → All Episodes, edit the episode, and set its Social Preview Image.
Fixing a wrong preview image
If the preview on Facebook, X (Twitter), or LinkedIn isn't what you expect:
- Verify what Podpage is sending. Go to metatags.io and enter your page's URL to see the preview Podpage is set up to show.
- If metatags.io shows the right image but the social network doesn't, the network has cached an old preview. Follow these instructions to clear the cache for each network.
- If it's wrong on metatags.io too, update the image in Podpage — the site-wide Social Sharing Image or the episode's Social Preview Image — then re-check on metatags.io.
Tip: If the image is missing entirely when you share, see My images aren't appearing when I share on social media.
