Checks a page's title, meta description, canonical, robots, and Open Graph / Twitter Card tags at a glance; it flags missing or incorrect SEO tags.
Why Do Meta Tags Matter?
Meta tags tell search engines and social media platforms about your page. A well-crafted title and description directly affect your click-through rate (CTR) in search results. Open Graph tags, meanwhile, determine how your link looks when it's shared.
Tags That Are Checked
- Title: Ideal length ~50–60 characters.
- Meta Description: ~150–160 characters; it should encourage clicks.
- Canonical: Prevents duplicate content issues.
- Robots: index/noindex, follow/nofollow directives.
- Open Graph & Twitter Card: Social sharing appearance.
How to Use It
- Enter the URL of the page you want to check.
- Fill in the tags marked as “missing” in the table.
- Bring the title and description character counts into the ideal range.
Tip: Write a unique title and description for every page. Duplicate tags dilute your ranking strength.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many characters should a title be?
Google typically shows ~600 pixels (roughly 50–60 characters). Longer titles get truncated in the results.
Is the meta keywords tag still necessary?
No. Google stopped using the meta keywords tag as a ranking factor a long time ago. Title, description, and content quality are far more important.
What does the canonical tag do?
When the same or similar content lives on multiple URLs, it specifies the primary version and thereby prevents a duplicate content penalty.
