Google SERP Snippet Preview

See exactly how your title, URL, and meta description will render in Google search results — before you publish — with real pixel-width truncation checks, not just character counts.

Google truncates by rendered pixel width, not character count — a title full of narrow letters (i, l, t) fits more characters than one full of wide letters (W, M, O). The bars above measure real rendered width so this matches what Google actually does.
Runs entirely in your browser. Google's snippet rendering can vary slightly by device and query, but this reflects the standard desktop and mobile layout widths (~580px / ~920px title/description budgets).

About this tool

Rather than counting characters, this measures your title and description using an actual canvas `measureText()` call at the same font and size Google's search results render with, then truncates at the real pixel-width cutoff the same way Google does. That's why two titles with the same character count can be truncated differently here — one full of wide letters like W and M eats up its pixel budget much faster than one full of narrow letters like i and l.

Why pixel width instead of a simple character count?

Google's search results use a proportional (non-monospace) font, so every character takes up a different amount of horizontal space. A character-count limit like "60 characters" is only a rough approximation — measuring actual rendered pixel width matches what Google's layout engine really does.

Are these widths exact for every search result?

They're close approximations based on Google's standard desktop and mobile layout widths, not a guarantee. Google can adjust the actual snippet shown — including rewriting your title or description entirely — based on the search query and device, so treat this as a strong preview, not a literal promise.

What happens visually when my title or description is too long?

The preview truncates it at the real pixel cutoff and appends an ellipsis, exactly mirroring how Google cuts off an overly long snippet in live search results — the meter above the field turns amber then red as you approach and exceed that budget.
