Source Text
iThe shareable image preview for your website is always neglected. It's called an OG image. This is what remove BG, the remove background tool, did.
At first it was plain, gave very little insight into what the tool actually did. Changed it to this. You see the background being perfectly removed from somebody, even with one of the hardest things, hair.
When your website is shared, most people will not click into it. Most people will just see this image. It's worth spending a lot of time on it so you can maximize click through rate.
