Description

Enhance the Open Graph metadata configuration to maximize readability for both machines (crawlers/scrapers) and humans across all social networks and search engines.

Goals

  • Ensure OG images load correctly when shared on all platforms
  • Maximize SEO and search result quality
  • Improve social media card presentation
  • Add proper metadata for academic/research context
  • Follow current best practices for 2024/2025

Technical Improvements Needed

  • Add metadataBase for absolute URLs (fixes image loading on social platforms)
  • Configure title templates for consistent branding across pages
  • Add keywords for academic search engines and discoverability
  • Configure author/creator/publisher metadata
  • Add format detection controls for mobile browsers
  • Specify image MIME types in OG tags
  • Enhance Twitter/X card configuration with alt text
  • Configure robots directives for optimal indexing
  • Add canonical URL to prevent duplicate content issues
  • Add Twitter creator/site handles (if applicable)

Constraints

  • DO NOT change existing marketing copy/descriptions
  • DO NOT change image dimensions (1200x630 is optimal)
  • Only add technical enhancements that improve machine and human readability

Expected Outcome

Better social shares, improved search result previews, and optimal presentation across all platforms (LinkedIn, Twitter/X, Facebook, Bluesky, Google, etc.).
