Free Title/Meta Length Checker

Check your title tag and meta description length against Google's display limits.

Google's actual cutoff is pixel-width based rather than a fixed character count, so these are practical guidelines (~60 chars for titles, ~158 for descriptions) rather than hard rules — but staying within them is a safe practice to avoid unpredictable truncation.

Worked Example

Example: A 72-character title will likely be truncated in search results — trimming to under 60 characters keeps it fully visible.

Method

Flags green (safe) under ~60 chars for title / ~158 for description, yellow (borderline) up to ~70/165, and red (likely truncated) beyond that.
