Frequently Asked Questions

Why should I measure title length in pixels rather than character count?

Google renders page titles using proportional typography, so wide letters like "W" or "M" occupy more horizontal space than narrow letters like "i" or "l". Estimate text width using proportional character measurements. Use the guides to identify titles and descriptions that may be truncated. Actual search result displays can vary depending on the query, device, and available space.

What is the recommended meta description length?

Google does not enforce a fixed meta description length. Search snippets vary depending on the query, device, and available display space. Write concise descriptions that communicate the page’s main value without unnecessary repetition. Google may shorten or replace the description when generating search results.

Does this preview guarantee exactly how Google will show my page?

No. This preview is an approximation based on common search layout proportions. Search engines frequently rewrite titles or extract different snippet sentences from on-page content to match a specific search query. Use this tool as a drafting guide.

What does the search words / query highlight feature do?

When users search for specific phrases, Google bolds matching words in the search results. Entering your primary keywords into the "Query Highlights" field simulates this bold effect, helping you assess whether your key terms stand out.

How do I add the exported meta tags to my website?

Copy the generated <title>, <meta name="description">, and <link rel="canonical"> tags and place them inside the <head> section of your HTML document or your framework’s head metadata configuration.

Is my meta information uploaded or stored anywhere?
