Hello Everyone, Can anyone tell me what is the title and description character limit..?

RH-Calvin · 08-28-2018, 11:42 PM

Google typically displays the first 50–60 characters of a title tag. If you keep your titles under 60 characters, our research suggests that you can expect about 90% of your titles to display properly.

Google generally truncates snippets ~300 characters (this limit increased in December 2017). You want meta descriptions long enough that they're descriptive. We generally recommend writing meta descriptions between 50–300 characters.

In 2018, Title can be 50-60 characters and description 120 to 158 characters.

HTML Title Tag Length However, the recommended length of the title is roughly 65-70 characters, including spaces. It is advisable to have your focus keyword in meta title. Keeping length around 60 characters allow to fit the title in the display of search results

While Google showed snippets with long meta descriptions (around 320 characters) in the past few months, the snippets are now back to their old length (between 150 and 170 characters).

Google has recently updated the length of title and description, the title can be 50-60 characters and description 150 to 300 characters.

Google has recently increased the length of titles in their search engine results pages from 50-60 characters to approximately 70 characters, provided that the length of title tag content should not exceed 600 pixels.

Meta title should be in 60 to 70character maximum 100 character
Meta descriptions should be 160 to 170 character maximum 200 character

saisaanvi · 01-31-2019, 06:01 AM

Exact character limit of the title is 55 and the description is 165.

Prateektechnoso · 01-31-2019, 06:05 AM

70 Characters are the best one for Title tag and 164 Characters are good for Meta Description.

TL;DR. Keep your title length around 60 characters. For your meta description length, keep it around 160 characters.

AzharSEO · 05-04-2022, 07:38 AM

Title character limits are 55 to 60 characters, and description limits are 155 to 160 characters in SEO.

quantumleap · 05-10-2022, 04:50 AM

Moz recommends keeping your titles under 60 characters. For the most accurate results, view on a desktop browser.
Note: You may also see title tags referred to as "meta titles" or "meta title tags" in some cases.
Meta descriptions can technically be any length, but Google generally truncates snippets to 155-160 characters.
It's best to keep meta descriptions long enough that they're sufficiently descriptive, so we recommend descriptions between 50 and 160 characters.
