    Guide: title tag and meta description length.

    Free, no account, nothing leaves your browser.

    How to use it

    1. 1
      Type your title and meta description

      Or paste the ones you already have. The preview updates as you type.

    2. 2
      Watch the pixel bars

      Google cuts titles at about 580 pixels on desktop and descriptions at about 920 pixels, not at a fixed number of characters. Green fits, amber is close, red gets cut.

    3. 3
      Put the keyword first

      Searchers scan the first words. Lead with the search you want to rank for, end with your brand if there is room.

    Questions

    How long should a title tag be?

    Google shows about 580 pixels of a title on desktop, roughly 50 to 60 characters. Wide letters (M, W) use more room than narrow ones (i, l), which is why this tool measures pixels instead of counting characters.

    How long should a meta description be?

    About 920 pixels on desktop, roughly 150 to 160 characters. Google often rewrites descriptions anyway, but a clear one that matches the search still raises the chance yours is shown.

    Does Google always show my title?

    No. Google rewrites titles it finds too long, stuffed with keywords or unlike the page. A title that fits and describes the page honestly is the one most often kept.

    Is the preview exact?

    It is close, not pixel-perfect: Google changes its layout and fonts from time to time, and mobile results wrap differently. Use it to stay safely inside the limits.

    Is my text sent anywhere?

    No. The preview runs entirely in your browser.
