This is a close approximation of Google's layout, measured the same way Google measures it — by pixel width, not a fixed character count. The exact cutoff can still vary slightly by device, browser and the search query itself, since Google sometimes bolds matched terms or swaps in a different snippet altogether.
Why This Measures Pixels, Not Characters
Most quick title checkers just count characters and tell you to stay under 60. That rule only holds for average-width text. A title made of narrow letters — "Will I Win" — fits in far less space than one made of wide letters and capitals — "WWW VPN MVP" — even at the identical character count. Google truncates by the actual rendered width of the text, so this tool measures your title and description the same way, using the same font Google's results use, rather than a flat number that is only right some of the time.
Pixel-Accurate
Measures the real rendered width of your text in Google's font, not a flat character count that treats every letter as the same width.
Desktop and Mobile
Switch views to see how your result differs between a desktop search and a phone, since mobile wraps titles instead of truncating them.
Nothing Leaves Your Browser
The whole preview, including the width measurement, runs client-side. Your draft title and description are never sent anywhere.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why does my title get cut off even though it is under 60 characters?↓
Google truncates by pixel width, not by a fixed character count. Wide characters and capitals use more space than narrow lowercase letters, so a 55-character title full of capital Ws can be cut off while a 65-character title of mostly narrow letters fits fine. This tool measures actual rendered width, the same way Google does, rather than relying on a flat character limit.
Is 580 pixels an official Google limit?↓
It is a widely observed approximation, not a published specification. Google has never documented an exact pixel cutoff, and it has changed the layout of search results before and will likely do so again. Treat the measurement here as a close, practical guide rather than a guarantee of exactly where your title will break.
Does Google always show the meta description I write?↓
No. Google frequently generates its own snippet from the page content instead, especially when it decides your meta description does not answer the searcher's specific query well. Writing a good, accurate description still helps on average, but it is a strong suggestion to Google rather than a guarantee.
Why is the mobile preview different from desktop?↓
Mobile search results often wrap a title across two lines instead of cutting it off with an ellipsis, and the usable width is narrower overall because the screen is narrower. The mobile view here reflects that wrapping behaviour rather than applying the same pixel limit as desktop.
Is my title or description sent anywhere?↓
No. Everything here, including the pixel-width measurement, runs in your browser using the Canvas API. Nothing you type is transmitted or stored.

About This Tool
Google decides where to cut off a title or description by how much horizontal space the rendered text actually takes up, not by how many characters it contains. This tool draws your text onto an invisible canvas using the same font Google's results use, measures the resulting width in pixels, and truncates at the same approximate point Google would — which is considerably more accurate than the flat "60 characters" advice most quick checkers give.
Everything runs in your browser using the Canvas API. Your draft text is never transmitted. For details on analytics and third-party ad requests, see our Privacy Policy.
