The truncation thresholds
Google truncates titles around 60 characters and descriptions around 160 on desktop — earlier on mobile. URLs display as a breadcrumb and lose their tail beyond roughly 60 characters. Staying inside these limits keeps your full message visible in the result.
One page, three appearances
The same page renders differently in a search result, an X card, and a LinkedIn share. Previewing all three at once catches the title that works in a SERP but clips awkwardly in a social card — before you publish, not after.
Frequently asked questions
- How long can a title tag be before Google truncates it?
- Google truncates titles at roughly 600 pixels of width — about 60 characters for average text. The limit is visual, not a character count, so wide letters hit it sooner. Titles past the limit are cut with an ellipsis or rewritten entirely.
- What is the ideal meta description length?
- About 150–160 characters on desktop and closer to 120 on mobile. Google truncates longer descriptions and frequently replaces descriptions that don't match the query with text extracted from the page.
- Why does my link look different on X than in Google?
- Each platform applies its own template and truncation: Google shows a breadcrumb URL with your title and description, X renders an og:image card with tighter title limits, and LinkedIn shows the title and domain only. This tool previews all three side by side.
