How it works

Start getting insights in minutes

See your SERP snippet exactly as Google shows it.

01
🔗

Enter your URL or paste tags

Enter a URL and the tool fetches the live title and meta description, or paste tags directly to preview a draft before it's published.

02
✏️

Edit and see changes live

Modify the title or description and see the preview update in real time. Pixel-width indicators show you exactly when truncation will occur.

03
📤

Export or share the preview

Download the snippet preview as an image for client reports or stakeholder sign-off. No screenshots needed - one-click export.

Why use it

Everything you need from Meta Preview

See your SERP snippet exactly as Google shows it.

📏

Exact pixel-width truncation, not character counts

Google truncates titles by pixel width, not character count. A title with all wide characters (W, M) truncates sooner than one with narrow characters (i, l). The preview accounts for this correctly.

👁️

Preview before you publish

Paste your draft title and meta description to see how it looks before it goes live. Catch truncation problems before searchers do.

📱

Desktop and mobile views

SERP snippets look slightly different on desktop and mobile. See both so you're optimising for the device mix your audience actually uses.

🎨

Client-ready exports

The preview image looks exactly like a real Google result - useful for client presentations where you want to show the improvement between old and new title without any explanation required.

⚠️

Catches missing or duplicate meta descriptions

If the tool fetches your URL and finds a missing or duplicated meta description, it flags it immediately - common issues that are easy to miss in a large CMS.
