when trying to share a link from my blog on Facebook, Facebook can pick up the text of the article, but it does not load the images to put in thumbnail.

Someone would have an idea what I should do. The url is: www.sesmt.org

To make sure that Facebook will pick up the image you need to use the og:tags.

The basic tags you need to insert on your website:

<meta property="og:title" content="The Rock" />
<meta property="og:type" content="website" />
<meta property="og:url" content="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0117500/" />
<meta property="og:image" content="http://ia.media-imdb.com/images/rock.jpg" />

It’s interesting to use images in the 1.91:1 ratio. The ideal image size is 1200x630px, but any size above 600x315px following the ratio is good size.

Worth a read on Good Sharing Practices of Facebook or in this other doubt I answered right here at Stackoverflow

I hope I’ve helped.

  • Should all goal properties be added or just the Image properties? and Content has to be an image link in the URL or can it be a link from inside the file? mine didn’t work well but appeared images from my site, but not the one I want as "default"

  • @Fabiosouza preferably add all the data, but if you add only og:image will work. And it needs to be the same image URL is in the example above. If you don’t add anything it will fetch any image from your site to show. Test the data in the Facebook Debugger https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/

When I tried to share the link from your site, an image appeared. But if you do not like the image you, you can upload an image by clicking on "Add photos/video", only with this you lose the thumbnail that facebook puts, IE, will be the link and the image of your choice.

  • I could test with this link, http://sesmt.org/Blog/Artigo/71 and see if it works.

  • With this link does not really appear the image. I did a research on the subject, and it seems that as your site does not have an image outside of Head the facebook does not bring. Take a look at this http://www.managandoblog.com.br/2013/12/facebook-nao-publica-imagem.html, you might understand a little better.
