What a meta title and description are
The title tag names a page. Search results usually show it as the link people click. The meta description is a short summary under it, which Google may show or replace with other text from the page.
Neither has a length limit in Google’s rules. Results cut both to fit the device, so long ones often end in the middle of a word.
A good title says what the page offers, with the words that matter first. A good description says who it is for and what to do next.
How to use the checker
- Paste the title tag into the first field.
- Paste the meta description into the second field.
- Add the page address if you want it in the preview. It stays in your browser.
- Watch the previews and the counts as you edit.
- Press Check for the result, with a Pass, Check or Fix label on each rule.
How to read your result
Each rule gets one of three labels, with the reason next to it.
- Pass: it fits the rule. Nothing to do.
- Check: it may be cut short, it is missing, or it repeats the title. Worth a second look.
- Fix: something every page needs is missing, such as a title.
The pixel width is information, not a rule. It shows how wide the title may run on a desktop result.
How to fix the common problems
The title is too long
Put the words that matter first, and cut the rest. Keep the brand name short, or move it to the end.
The description is missing or copied
Write one for each page that sells. Say what the page offers and who it is for, in one or two sentences.
Many pages share one title
Duplicate titles usually point to duplicate pages. Our monthly SEO plans include on-page work on up to 10, 25 or 50 pages, depending on the plan.

Meta title and description checker: questions
Is this tool free?
Yes. No sign-up and no email. The full result shows on this page.
Do you keep what I enter?
No. The check runs in your browser, and nothing you type is sent to us or stored.
How accurate is it?
It applies the rules in the limits box, each with its source and check date. The previews and pixel width are estimates, because results cut text to fit each device.
How long should a title tag be?
Google sets no limit. We keep titles to 59 characters or fewer on our own pages, so the important words show before any cut.
Can you check my whole site?
Yes. Ask for the free audit and a person looks at your site, not just one page.
