Check the Feedback.

 

Title Counter:

  • "Too short" (under 30 chars) - aim for more descriptive text.

  • "Getting there" (30-54 chars) - could often be more impactful.

  • "Good!" (55-65 chars) - you're in the sweet spot!

  • "Too long" (over 65 chars) - it will likely be cut off by Google.
     

Meta Description Counter:

  • "Too short" (under 70 chars) - expand to provide more value.

  • "Acceptable" (70-149 chars) - good, but aim for the ideal range if possible.

  • "Good!" (150-160 chars) - perfect for conveying your message!

  • "Too long" (over 160 chars) - will likely be truncated.

​Following SEO Best Practices with This Tool.

Title Tag

Your most important on-page SEO element for clicks. Use the tool to ensure it's compelling, contains your primary keywords naturally, and stays within the optimal length (55-65 characters) to avoid being cut off.

 

Meta Description

While not a direct ranking factor, a well-written meta description (ideally 150-160 characters, but at least 70) entices users to click. Use this space to accurately summarize your page, highlight benefits, and include a call-to-action if appropriate.

 

URL

Check that your URL is user-friendly, concise, and ideally includes relevant keywords. The preview shows how it might appear.
