Q:
When I am attempting to post a link to my blog/website on Facebook, Facebook doesn’t give me the option to use the images in my post from my newest article, why is that?
A:
Facebook has a cache of your webpage. Meaning that it stores information about your webpage for a given amount of time, rather than getting the information from your webpage every time you or someone else attempts to post a link to your webpage. Facebook does this to reduce demands on their server resources and your site. The cache is used when presenting you with the option to add an image to your post that represents your webpage. Facebook will re-cache your webpage at random intervals sometimes every 24 hours sometimes up to a week.
