Twitter Cards makes it possible for you to attach media contetn to tweets that link to your wordpress article.
A pretty simple Setup. On the one hand you can hard code it yourself or on the other hand you’ll use a PlugIn, anyway it’s gonna work fine.
Twitter Cards are available in four different types:
Spoiler Alert, we use option [2] and no SEO Plugin
1) Summary card
[the tweet will display the page’s title, thumbnail, and description]
2) Summary card with a large image
[it is similar to the summary card but with a big featured image]
3) Player card
[shows a series of videos, images, or other media experiences]
4) App card
[redirects users to an application’s download link]
Twitter Cards are a handy tool that modifies your tweets to show a sneak peek of your wordpress Article.
