Your meta title and meta description are what people see in Google’s search results, and a title that gets cut off costs you clicks. This free meta tag checker measures your title and description in pixels and characters, shows a live Google search preview, and flags anything too long, too short or missing.
Write it here, get it right, then paste it into your page.

Frequently asked questions
What is the ideal meta title length?
Aim for roughly 50–60 characters (about 580px). Longer titles get cut off in Google with an ellipsis.
What length should a meta description be?
Around 140–160 characters. Long enough to be useful, short enough not to be truncated.
Does the meta description affect ranking?
Not directly, but a compelling description improves click-through rate, which helps overall.
Why pixels and not just characters?
Google measures width in pixels, so a title full of wide letters (W, M) can be cut off even under 60 characters.
