Meta Title Length Checker
See whether your titles fit in Google’s results before they are cut with “…”. Enter one title per line and the checker measures each in characters and in pixels, using Arial at the size Google uses, against about 580 pixels on desktop and about two lines on mobile. Each title gets a meter, a status and a preview of how it would be shown, and the whole list can be exported as CSV.

Google does not publish exact limits. Widths are measured in your browser in Arial at the size Google uses (20 px on desktop, 18 px on mobile), against commonly observed cut-offs: about 580 px on desktop and two lines (about 640 px) on mobile. Google may also rewrite the text completely.

Meta Title Length Checker FAQ
Why pixels and not characters?
Google truncates by width. A title of narrow letters fits more characters than one with wide letters such as W and M, so a character count is only an estimate.
What is a good title length?
Roughly 30 to 60 characters, or up to about 580 pixels. Shorter titles are often rewritten by Google; longer ones are cut.
Will Google always use my title?
No. Google rewrites some titles to match searches better, especially very short, very long or keyword-stuffed ones.
Titles that fit
The title is the largest text in a search result and the main factor in whether people click. Put the most important words first so they are visible even if the end is cut.
Brand names at the end of titles are often the first thing to be cut; that is usually fine.
Privacy: everything on this page runs in your browser. What you type or paste is not uploaded, stored or logged, and the result is generated on your device, so you can safely work with unpublished content, client data or drafts.
Tip: the result updates as you type, so you can try variations quickly. Copy the output with one click or download it as a file, and keep a copy of your input if you want to come back later – nothing is saved between visits.
Who it is for: the tool is built for site owners, marketers, writers and developers alike. You do not need to install anything or create an account, it works on phones as well as on desktop computers, and the results are plain text you can paste into any CMS, spreadsheet, code editor or ticket.
Accuracy: the rules used here are documented on the page and follow the published guidelines of the major search engines and web standards. Where a result is an approximation or a rule of thumb rather than an official limit, the page says so, so you can decide how much weight to give it.
Good practice: generated markup and files only help when they match the real page. Publish them together with the visible content they describe, test the page with the official tools from the search engines, and update the markup whenever the page changes.
