Meta Title Checker & Description Checker
Google doesn't cut off your title and description by character count — it cuts them by pixel width. A title full of wide capital letters gets truncated much sooner than the same number of narrow characters. This free meta title checker measures both: character count and an on-screen pixel estimate using the same style of measurement as a real browser, with simple traffic-light indicators. Think of it as a quick SERP preview — if it fits here, it fits on Google. It is made for website owners, bloggers and SEO freelancers who want every page to show its full title in search results. Just start typing — results update live.

Meta title checker FAQs
What is the ideal meta title length?
Aim for roughly 50–60 characters and under about 580 pixels wide. Longer titles usually still get indexed, but Google may truncate or rewrite the visible part — the words that sell the click should be at the front.
What is the ideal meta description length?
Around 150–160 characters (about 920 px on desktop; mobile often shows closer to 680 px). Descriptions don't directly rank your page, but a complete, non-truncated description earns more clicks from the same ranking.
Why does pixel width matter more than characters?
Because letters have different widths — "W" takes far more space than "i". Two 60-character titles can display very differently in search results. This checker measures rendered width with your browser's own text engine, so the estimate matches what Google will roughly fit on screen.
