Free meta description checker
Check the meta description of any page for presence, duplicates, length, and measured pixel width. No signup and no email.
What we check
Missing and empty descriptions, and pages with more than one description tag.
Descriptions shorter than 70 characters, and descriptions wider than 920 pixels at the desktop result font.
Descriptions that repeat the title word for word.
Measured, not Google limits
Google publishes no pixel limits. The 920 pixel figure is a measured glyph width, not a Google limit, and Google may show a different snippet than your description.
Meta description checker questions
How long should a meta description be?
Google publishes no limit. We flag descriptions under 70 characters or wider than 920 pixels, which are measured thresholds, not Google limits.
Does Google always use my meta description?
No. Google may choose its own snippet for a result.
Can it check many pages?
The free check covers one URL at a time. Site crawls are part of the paid plans, listed on the pricing page.
Do I have to sign up?
No. The single-URL check needs no signup and no email.
