Write snippets that earn the click

Your title and description are your ad in the search results. Type them in, or import them from a live page, and the tool shows a realistic Google result on desktop or mobile, truncating text by pixel width just like Google does (around 600 px for titles and 920 px for descriptions).

Meters show when you're too short or too long, so you can try different wording until the whole message fits — a quick win for pages that get impressions but few clicks.

Frequently asked questions

How many characters fit in a Google title?

Roughly 50–60, but it depends on letter width: “W” is much wider than “i”. That's why this tool measures pixels.

Will Google use my exact title and description?

Usually, but Google may rewrite them if it thinks other text on the page matches the search better.

Does the preview show rich results?

It shows a standard result. Stars, FAQs and prices depend on structured data and Google's choice.
