Meta Checker

How it works

Type or paste your meta title and description. The tool measures each one the way Google does, by rendered pixel width rather than raw character count, and tells you whether it fits, runs short, or gets truncated in the results. The live preview shows roughly how the snippet looks on a desktop search page.

Already have a page live? Open it, view source, and use Pull from page HTML to drop the existing title and description straight into the fields.

No backend, no logging. Everything happens in your tab.

Why pixels, not characters

Google cuts titles and descriptions at a pixel width, so "60 characters" is only a rough guide. A title full of wide letters (W, M, capitals) gets clipped sooner than a narrow one. The meters here track both: characters for the familiar number, pixels for the verdict that actually matches the search page.

When to use it

• Drafting a title and description for a new page and want to see them in context first.
• Checking why a published snippet looks cut off in the results.
• Tightening copy that runs long before it ever goes live.

Google rewrites titles and descriptions more often than people expect, so treat this as a length and framing check, not a promise of what shows up.
