LinkedIn Preview Image Not Showing? Diagnose in 5 Minutes
Fix missing LinkedIn preview images by validating og:image size, mime type, accessibility, and cache invalidation.
What usually breaks LinkedIn previews
- Image too small: aim for at least 1200×627.
- Wrong format: prefer JPG/PNG with valid content-type headers.
- Blocked crawler: robots or WAF rules deny LinkedInBot.
- Relative URLs:
og:imageshould be absolute. - Cache lag: LinkedIn may hold old scrape data after updates.
After updating tags, re-share with a unique query string (for example ?v=2) to force a fresh scrape path while cache catches up.
