Frequently Asked Questions

What is the ideal meta title length?

Google displays up to approximately 580 pixels of a title tag, which is roughly 50 to 60 characters. Titles longer than this will be truncated with an ellipsis (...) in search results.

What is the ideal meta description length?

Meta descriptions should be between 120 and 160 characters. Google may display up to about 920 pixels (~160 characters) on desktop and less on mobile. Keep your most important information in the first 120 characters.

How accurate is the pixel width estimate?

The pixel width is an approximation based on an average character width of ~6px for titles and ~5.75px for descriptions (Google uses a variable-width font). Actual rendering depends on the specific characters used — wide characters like "W" and "M" take more space than "i" or "l".

Does Google always use my meta description?

No. Google may rewrite your meta description if it thinks a different snippet better matches the search query. However, a well-written meta description is more likely to be used and can improve click-through rates.

Is my text stored anywhere?

No. All analysis runs entirely in your browser. Your text never leaves your device.
