Preview your page in Google search results

Type a page title, description and address to see how they’re likely to look in Google, on desktop and on a phone. Google cuts titles and descriptions by width, so the preview measures the text the way Google displays it.

Or paste the page’s HTML

The title, meta description and canonical address are read from it. Nothing is fetched or sent anywhere.

Preview

    A close approximation: Google doesn’t publish exact limits, changes its layout from time to time and sometimes rewrites titles and descriptions.

    Runs in your browser. Nothing you type or paste is sent anywhere.

    How it works

    1. Type your title, description and page address, or paste the HTML tags.
    2. The text is measured in the font Google uses, and cut where Google would likely cut it: about 600 pixels for titles, about 920 pixels for descriptions on desktop and 680 on phones.
    3. The previews update as you type, with advice on length.

    What you enter stays on your device

    This tool runs entirely in your browser. Nothing you type is sent to our servers, so there is nothing for us to store, see or delete.

    To check, open your browser’s developer tools, switch to the Network tab and use the tool: you will not see what you type being sent anywhere.

    Questions

    Why doesn’t Google show my title exactly?

    Google sometimes rewrites titles and descriptions it thinks don’t describe the page well, and adds your site name. A clear, accurate title that matches the page’s main heading is the best way to keep yours.

    How long should a title and description be?

    Google cuts by width, not characters, but roughly 50–60 characters for titles and 120–155 for descriptions usually show in full. Put the most important words first in case they’re cut.

    Is what I enter saved or sent anywhere?

    No. The preview runs in your browser and nothing you type is sent to our servers.
