## About

The <title> tag is the single most important on-page SEO element. Google typically displays up to 60 characters in desktop search results and 50-60 on mobile. Titles longer than that get truncated with an ellipsis. A good title is 30-60 characters — long enough to be informative, short enough to display in full.

Type or paste your title and the tool shows the live character count and verdict against the recommended range. Switch to Open Graph to check the <meta property="og:title"> tag, which can be a bit longer (up to ~90 chars in some contexts).

## How to use

1. **Pick a tag type** — Page title (<title>) or Open Graph title (<meta property="og:title">).
2. **Paste your title** — The verdict and count update live.

## Examples

### A good page title

A 47-character title that displays in full and contains the brand name.

### A truncated one

A 75-character title that Google will cut off.

## FAQ

### How long should a page title be?

Google typically shows the first 50-60 characters of a title in search results. Aim for 30-60 characters so the whole title is visible on both desktop and mobile.

### What about the og:title?

The Open Graph title is what shows when the page is shared on Facebook, LinkedIn, Slack, etc. It can be a bit longer (up to ~90 chars) but the same truncation rules apply. Twitter uses a separate twitter:title tag with a ~70 char limit.

### Does the title tag affect SEO?

Yes — the title tag is one of the strongest on-page ranking signals and is the main thing users see in search results. Each page should have a unique, descriptive title that includes the primary keyword near the start.
