Oginify vs Ghost built-in OG

Ghost sets the post's feature image as og:image by default. Oginify generates a purpose-made share card so you don't have to pick or design the feature image around the 1200×630 frame.

Stay with Ghost built-in OG when

Stick with the default if your feature images are already shot at the right aspect ratio and the in-card text isn't important to you.

Use Oginify when

Use Oginify when you want a real composition — typography, brand, structured content — instead of relying on whatever hero image was uploaded.
