When Google decides whether to send searchers to your page, it shows them a small card with three elements: the title tag, the URL or breadcrumb path, and a meta description snippet. Those three lines are what separates a click from a scroll-past. This previewer renders a faithful mockup of how Google currently displays a search result, lets you type a title and description, and warns you when either exceeds the pixel-width limits that cause Google to truncate them. Title tags are limited to roughly 600 pixels on desktop or about 60 characters of typical text. Meta descriptions are limited to roughly 920 pixels or about 160 characters. Going slightly over the limit means Google chops your text with an ellipsis, which usually cuts off your strongest message. Going way under the limit wastes space you could use to differentiate the result from competitors. Type your title, description, and URL, and the previewer shows you exactly what a searcher will see.
Frequently asked questions
Google measures in pixels, but pixel widths vary depending on which letters you use (wider letters like W and M take more space than narrow ones like i and l). This tool approximates Google's actual pixel-based truncation by measuring rendered text width in the same font Google uses.
