When I post my website online (say facebook) it does not show a picture in the thumbnail view, just a blank "spot" for an image. 

How do I get an image in this spot?

Not all of my pages have an image I can add to sitemap

Hello Lauren,

You can designate an image using the field highlighted in the screenshot below:

You will find this in Step 1 Settings > General tab

The following text is from the help file:

WebSite Image: this specifies the picture (a .JPG, .PNG or .GIF file) that will be associated with the website. This picture will be added to all the website pages' code by the Open Graph og:image tag and it will be used when you share pages on social networks (Facebook, Twitter, Google+, etc.). If you share a blog post which includes a slideshow, the first picture in the slideshow will be used instead of the website's picture.

Facebook suggests using 1200x630 pixel pictures, but the lowest resolution for displaying pictures in a large format (and not as a small square on the left) is 600x315 pixels.

For more information on the Open Graph protocol, click on the  button to go to the official ogp.me/ website.
