Free, zero effort social images for your blog

by Joe Masilotti

I've grown really tired of manually creating social images for every single blog post. They take way too long to create and online tools always end up looking too generic. How many stock photos can I scroll through before they all start to look the same?

So I built Mugshot Bot. An automated, zero effort social image generator. You pass it a URL and it generates a perfectly sized, unique, beautiful social image.
Here's a 15 second video of me adding a new mugshot it to my blog.

And some examples from real blogs and landing pages using the tool.

Example #1

Example #2

Example #3

Pro tip: You don't need to visit the website to create an image. Just use this template to generate one!

Is this something you would use for your blog? I would love to hear why!

      Thanks for the advice. It shouldn’t be too hard to do that, either. I’m also looking into a paid service with the watermark.
