Type your title, URL and meta description and watch the Google result update as you type, with character counts and a warning when text will be cut off.
Enter the title tag, the page URL and the meta description. The preview updates with every keystroke, and the counters under it turn red when the title passes 60 characters or the description passes 160. Adjust until both fit, then copy the final text into your CMS. If you need new wording, the title and meta description generators write options you can paste back in here.
Google cuts titles and descriptions that run long, and the cut lands mid-sentence, usually on the part that would have earned the click. Seeing the snippet the way a searcher sees it, before it is live, catches that, and it catches titles that read fine in a CMS field but look empty or repetitive next to nine competitors. It takes ten seconds per page.
Google limits titles by pixel width, around 600 pixels on desktop, not by character count. Capital letters and wide letters like W and M use more room, so a 58 character title in caps can still be cut.
It shows the desktop layout. On mobile the title wraps to two lines and the description is cut closer to 120 characters, so keep the important words early.
Not always. Google rewrites descriptions it thinks do not match the query. Describing the page accurately and using the keyword makes yours more likely to be shown.
