SERP Preview & Title Pixel Width Checker
Write titles and descriptions that won’t get cut off. Preview how your snippet might appear and check the actual pixel width of your title against a safe limit.
Why Pixel Width Beats Character Counts
Google truncates titles by *rendered width*, not characters. A short title with wide glyphs (W, M, capitals) can get cut, while a longer title with narrow glyphs can fit. This tool measures the title in pixels using a close match to Google’s desktop rendering so you can write with confidence.

Talk to Digital HypeTitle & Description Tips
- Keep desktop titles under ~580px; mobile can differ, so write tight, front-load value.
- Use one primary keyword naturally; avoid repeating your brand unless it adds clarity.
- Descriptions don’t directly rank, but a clear benefit can lift CTR.
SERP Preview FAQs
Does Google always use my title?
No. Google may rewrite titles based on queries and page headings. A strong on-page H1 + title alignment helps.
Is the 580px limit exact?
It’s a conservative guideline for desktop. Google’s UI, fonts, and device breakpoints can change. Write succinctly.
Will the preview look identical to Google?
It’s a close approximation, meant for drafting. Final appearance varies by device, query, and test rolls.
Can I preview rich results?
This tool focuses on core snippets. Use structured data testing tools to validate rich result eligibility.
Should I include my brand name?
Use it when it adds trust or disambiguation. Otherwise prefer actionable, specific titles.
Does description length matter?
Write clear, helpful copy around 140–160 characters as a rule of thumb; Google may show more or less.
Do pixels change for other languages?
Yes, glyph widths vary. This tool uses Latin font assumptions common to UK/US English SERPs.
Can you help with a site-wide meta strategy?
Yes — we create reusable patterns, governance, and QA steps. Get in touch.
