Sharing on Facebook

I must admit that Im disappointed with the way pictures are shared on Facebook.

I know from working with other webpages, that Facebook is sharing the picture like its an small picture related to an article.

And not a big singled picture which should be the main focus of the post.

Im I doing it wrong?

Thanks in advance

Thomas

You can try using an Fotoweb Action, with a Webhook. You can send this to Zapier and from there to Facebook.

This will allow you to control the information that is displayed

I think Fotoware could improve this by implementing Open Graph tags on the Preview page

Implementing this means that Facebook will create a better post , with correct information.

Thomas,

Michael has hit this on the head, the only way I am chiming in is to share a Facebook page I have that shows the result of the Zapier interaction.

https://www.facebook.com/FotoWebHooks

I hope this helps in some small way.
