Frequently Asked Questions About SERP Preview Tool
Why does Google truncate by pixels, not characters?
Google renders snippets in a proportional font, so a title with many wide letters (like W and M) takes more space than one with narrow letters. Measuring pixel width is more accurate than counting characters.
How long should my title be?
Desktop titles are typically truncated around 580 pixels, roughly 55-60 characters. This tool measures the actual rendered width and warns you when you exceed the safe limit.
Does this guarantee how Google displays my page?
Google sometimes rewrites titles and descriptions based on the search query, so previews are a close approximation, not a guarantee. They remain the best way to optimize your snippet.
