FAQ
Common questions
How long should a title tag be?
Keep the main topic near the start. This preview uses a 600-pixel desktop title and a two-line mobile title as guides. Letter widths vary, so character count alone won't tell you whether a title fits.
How long should a meta description be?
Put the most useful information first. This preview allows two lines on desktop and three on mobile, including the optional date. Real snippets vary by query and screen size.
Does this guarantee what Google will show?
No. Google often rewrites titles and descriptions, especially when they don't match the query. This preview is an approximation, and Google may choose different text, fonts or layout.
Does this tool send my text anywhere?
No. Your title, description and URL stay in your browser. The preview updates as you type.
