About this tool
This tool renders your title tag and meta description the way they commonly appear as a Google search snippet, so you can catch an overlong title or a description that gets cut off before it says anything useful. It uses a practical ~60-character limit for the title and ~160 characters for the description, flagging anything longer as truncated.
Be aware this is an approximation, not a guarantee: Google actually truncates based on rendered pixel width, not character count, and that width varies by character — a row of narrow letters like "iiiii" fits far more text than the same number of wide letters like "WWWWW" at the same visible width. The exact cutoff also shifts with device and search result type. Character counts like the ones shown here are a widely-used sanity check, but the only way to be completely sure how your title and description will look is to see them rendered in an actual search result.
Frequently asked questions
Is this preview pixel-accurate to real Google results?
No — Google truncates based on rendered pixel width, not character count, and the exact cutoff can shift. This tool uses a common character-count approximation as a practical guideline, not a guarantee.
What happens if my description is empty?
Google will typically auto-generate a snippet from your page content instead, which you can't control precisely — writing a deliberate meta description gives you control over what searchers see.
