What Does the Meta Tag Checker Do?
This tool extracts every meta tag from any URL and shows you exactly how your page appears to search engines and social platforms. You get a Google SERP preview showing your title, URL, and description as they'd appear in search results, with character count warnings if anything is too long or too short.
It also renders Facebook Open Graph and Twitter Card previews so you can see what your page looks like when shared on social media. Missing og:image? Truncated og:description? The tool flags these issues and shows you what to fix.
Who Is This Tool For?
Content creators checking how their latest post will look in Google before hitting publish. Social media managers previewing how shared links appear on Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn. SEO professionals auditing title tags, meta descriptions, and Open Graph markup across a client's site.
Frequently Asked Questions
Google displays roughly 50-60 characters of your title tag before truncating with an ellipsis. This tool shows a pixel-accurate SERP preview of how your title and description appear in Google. If your title is too long, you'll see exactly where it gets cut off so you can rewrite it to fit.
Google sometimes ignores your meta description and generates its own from page content. Check whether you even have a meta description using this tool. If the tag is missing, Google pulls text from the page body. If it's present but too long (over 160 characters) or not relevant to the search query, Google may substitute its own version. The tool shows your exact description and flags length issues.
This tool extracts all meta tags from any URL: title, description, canonical URL, robots directives, Open Graph, Twitter Card, and viewport. It shows exactly what search engines and social platforms read when they process your page, and flags anything missing or misconfigured. Enter any URL to get a complete meta tag audit.
Yes. A canonical tag (<link rel="canonical">) tells search engines which version of a page is the "official" one. If the same content is reachable at multiple URLs (with and without www, with tracking parameters, through different paths), the canonical prevents duplicate content diluting your rankings. Every indexable page should have one. This tool checks whether a canonical is present and shows what URL it points to.
You're probably missing the viewport meta tag. Without <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">, mobile browsers render your page at desktop width and shrink it down, making text unreadable. Google uses mobile-first indexing, so a missing viewport tag hurts both user experience and rankings. This tool checks for it.
