How long can a Google title be?

Google truncates by pixel width, not characters - roughly 580px on desktop (about 50-60 characters). The preview measures your actual title width and warns before it gets cut.

How long should the meta description be?

Around 150-160 characters / ~990px on desktop, shorter on mobile. Longer descriptions get truncated with an ellipsis.

Why does mobile preview matter?

Most searches happen on mobile, where titles and descriptions truncate earlier. The tool shows both so you optimize for the smaller screen.

Does Google always use my meta description?

No - Google rewrites descriptions ~60% of the time to match the query. A good description still improves click-through when it is shown.
