Your title appears here

Your meta description appears here. Google will truncate it if it's too long — that's what the limit warnings on the inputs are about.

Google actually decides truncation by pixel width, not character count, so this is a close approximation. The character limits (~60 title, ~155 description) are conservative averages.

Frequently asked questions

How long should a title tag and meta description be for Google?

Aim for roughly 60 characters on the title tag and about 155–160 characters on the meta description — past those points Google tends to cut the text off with an ellipsis. This tool shows live character counters for both so you can stay within range.

Why does my snippet look different in the actual search results?

Google truncates by pixel width, not character count, so wide letters eat space faster than narrow ones — the ~60 and ~155 limits here are conservative averages. Google may also rewrite your title or pull a different description from the page entirely.

What is the difference between the desktop and mobile preview?

Toggle between Desktop and Mobile to check both layouts, since they wrap the title and description differently and the URL line renders in its own style. Previewing both helps you catch truncation that only shows up on one device.

Is my title and description data sent anywhere?

No — the preview is generated entirely in your browser as you type. Nothing you enter is uploaded or stored on a server.
