Google SERP Snippet Preview

Preview how your title, URL and meta description appear in Google, with live pixel-width truncation warnings. Free, edits update instantly.

Preview your Google snippet

Edit the title, URL and description to see how your result appears in Google — with truncation warnings.

🌐example.com › page
Your page title — brand or keyword first
Write a compelling 150–160 character meta description that summarises the page and invites the click.
Title: 40 chars, ~329px — fits within Google's ~580px width.
Description: 101 chars, ~610px — a good length.

Pixel widths are approximate — Google measures by rendered width, not character count, and may rewrite titles. Treat these as close guidance.

About SERP snippets

Your SERP snippet — the title, URL and description in Google's results — is your ad in the search listing. Google truncates by rendered pixel width (roughly 580px for titles, 990px for descriptions), not a fixed character count, so a title full of wide letters is cut sooner than one of narrow letters.

This preview renders your snippet as it will roughly appear and estimates those pixel widths so you can keep the important words visible. Note that Google frequently rewrites titles and pulls descriptions from the page when it judges them a better match — so write a strong tag, but treat the live result as the final say.
