This tool fetches your page and previews how its title and meta description might display on Google. We estimate pixel width (not just characters) and provide desktop & mobile views so you can check truncation risk fast.
Why Pixel Width Matters
Google truncates by available pixels, not raw characters. Wide glyphs (W, M, emojis) consume more space than narrow ones (i, l). Measuring pixels gives you a much closer feel for real SERP display.
Title Best Practices
- Lead with the primary keyword and the page’s unique value.
- Target ~580–600px on desktop, ~550px on mobile.
- Place your brand at the end (e.g., “ | PinoyGPT”) unless brand is the hook.
- Use one concise separator; avoid clutter.
- Write naturally—no keyword stuffing.
Description Best Practices
- Summarize the value and next step clearly.
- Aim for ~920–990px on desktop, ~880px on mobile.
- Use benefits and active verbs (“Compare, try, download”).
- Include one relevant keyword naturally.
- Add a soft CTA when appropriate.
Common Pitfalls
- Duplicate titles across many pages.
- Empty or boilerplate descriptions.
- Auto-generated text that ignores search intent.
- Exceeding pixel width causing truncation.
Good Examples
Title: “Broken Link Checker – Find 404s & Timeouts | PinoyGPT”
Description: “Scan any page for 404s, 5xx errors, and timeouts. Preview results and export a clean report—free, fast, and accurate.”

FAQ
Does Google always use my meta description?
Not always. Google can rewrite snippets based on the query, but a relevant description increases the chance yours is shown.
Is character count enough?
No—pixel width is a better proxy because different characters take different space. This tool shows both.
Should I include my brand in the title?
Usually yes, at the end. If brand recognition is the main draw, you can lead with it.
Will emojis show correctly?
They can, but they’re wide and may hurt clarity or cause truncation. Use sparingly.
