Meta Description Checker with Google preview

Test your title and meta description for free with a live Google preview. See instantly whether your text gets cut off, measured in pixels.

Why pixels matter more than characters

Google cuts off titles at around 580 pixels and descriptions at around 920 pixels on desktop. A 'W' is much wider than an 'i', so two texts of 60 characters can turn out very differently.

What a good description does

It promises a concrete answer or result, contains the topic the searcher was looking for and gives a reason to choose your result.

Meta descriptions in the AI era

AI search engines read the whole page, but the description is still your ad copy in the classic results — and that is still where most click traffic comes from.
