How to customize the link share on Facebook

Normally when sharing articles on Facebook, titles, descriptions or images are defaulted to the correct post. However, if you want to change those fixed parts, it is very simple.

By default of Facebook, when you share a post, the post title, description, and image display will be fixed according to the share post. If there is a change, it is only part of the image displayed, but not all Facebook posts can choose to change the displayed image.

If the user wants to change those fixed parts when sharing the article on Facebook in his own way, such as changing the title, rewriting the description, or using any image to replace it. For Facebook post display images, you can use the Pretty Links service.

Pretty Links supports us to edit the title, description and images displayed on the article link. This service will act as an intermediary when you post to Facebook. And when you click on it, we will still get to the original site of the post. The following article will help you learn how to use the online Pretty Links service to change the link to share articles on Facebook.

Step 1:

First of all, we visit the homepage of Pretty Links according to the link below.
