Meta Title Length Checker FAQs
How long should a meta title be?
Google typically displays meta titles up to 600px wide, which is roughly 50–60 characters for most fonts. Keep your title under 60 characters to avoid truncation on most devices.
What happens if my title is too long?
Google will truncate your title in search results, cutting it off with an ellipsis (…). This can reduce click-through rates and may hide important keywords.
Does Google always use my meta title?
Not always. Google may rewrite your title if it thinks an alternative better matches the user's query. However, well-crafted, accurate titles are usually used as-is.
Should I include my brand name in the title?
Yes — including your brand name (usually at the end, separated by a pipe or dash) helps build brand awareness and trust in search results. Just make sure it fits within the character limit.
