Refresh shared links on Facebook

When you change a page's share title, text or image, Facebook keeps showing the old card until it reads the page again. Zinn® SEO asks it to, as soon as you save, with your own Facebook app.

  1. Open Refresh shared links

    Go to SEO, Social, Refresh shared links.

    Open Refresh shared links
  2. Add your Facebook app

    Create a free app at developers.facebook.com, copy its App ID and App secret from Settings, Basic, paste them and switch on Refresh shared links on Facebook when a page changes. The secret stays on your site.

    Add your Facebook app
  3. Change a page and save

    Change a page's share title, text or image. Within a minute Facebook is asked to read it again; many pages go in one request. To refresh pages now, paste their addresses and press Refresh now.

    Change a page and save
  4. Check the result, and LinkedIn

    Each page shows Refreshed or Not refreshed with Facebook's words. LinkedIn does not let other tools refresh its cards: press Check on LinkedIn beside a page and LinkedIn reads it again.

    Check the result, and LinkedIn
