## About

Search engines truncate titles and descriptions that are too long, cutting off your message mid-sentence. The SERP preview shows a realistic Google-style snippet of your page so you can see — before publishing — exactly what searchers will get.

Live character counters warn you when your title approaches the ~60 character limit or your description passes ~155 characters, with separate guidance for the slightly longer title limit on mobile results.

## How to use

1. **Enter your page title** — Watch the desktop and mobile character counters as you type.
2. **Enter the URL** — Shown as the green display URL beneath the title.
3. **Enter your meta description** — Aim for roughly 150–155 characters so it does not get cut off.

## Examples

### A well-sized snippet

A title around 55 characters and a description near 150 characters display fully.

Input:

```
Title: How to Brew the Perfect Cup of Coffee
```

Output:

```
The full title and description render without truncation in the preview.
```

## FAQ

### What is the ideal title length?

Google typically displays about 60 characters on desktop and up to 78 on mobile. Titles close to 60 characters are the safest bet.

### How long should a meta description be?

Around 155 characters. Longer descriptions may be truncated with an ellipsis in search results.

### Does this guarantee my snippet looks exactly like this?

No — Google may rewrite titles and descriptions based on the search query. This is a close approximation that is useful for sizing and message testing.
