Good to know about this tool

What does this tool do?

Shows a Google search result preview and checks whether the title and meta description stay within the usual display length.

Why does it exist?

Titles and descriptions that are too long get cut off by Google with '...' — often right in the most important part of the sentence.

Typical use cases
  • Test title and description before publishing a new page
  • Check existing pages for overly long meta tags
Best practices & notes
  • Put the most important information first, in case it does get cut off
  • Every page needs its own unique title and description

Frequently Asked Questions

How accurate is the pixel measurement?

The pixel width is an approximation based on Google's standard font and may vary slightly by device — Google's actual truncation logic isn't publicly documented.

Are my texts stored?

No, everything is processed locally in your browser only.
