Google search preview

What is a Google Search Preview Tool?

The Google Search Preview tool renders a mockup of how a webpage's title, URL, and meta description would appear as a listing in Google search results, based on the page's actual title tag, meta description, and OpenGraph site name.

Why Preview Before Publishing

• Truncation check — See exactly where Google is likely to cut off a long title or description before it ever goes live.
• Click-through appeal — Compare how compelling your snippet looks next to what you'd expect from competing results for the same query.
• Catch missing metadata — Instantly spot a page with no title or description set, both of which directly affect how (and whether) users click through from search results.
