DigiKitMeta Title Checker - DigiKitApp
Check whether your page title length is SEO-friendly.
When should you use this?
Use this before publishing, to check whether a page title will show in full on Google without getting cut off, and whether it exceeds the character/pixel limit.
When shouldn't you use this?
It only checks length, it doesn't measure whether the title will actually persuade people to click; for that you need real A/B testing in search results.

Step-by-step
- Type the title into the Page title field. If your site appends something like " | Brand Name" automatically, include it, because it shows up in search results too.
- Click Run.
- Check whether the length stays within the suggested limit.
- If it runs over, shorten the brand suffix or cut filler words first, then run it again.
Example
An online shop has a product title along the lines of "Men's Waterproof Hiking Boots, Winter, Vibram Sole, Free Shipping | Store Name". The checker will flag it as long, and in search results the free shipping note and store name are the likely casualties. Keep the words that describe the product at the front and move the shipping detail into the meta description. The phrase people actually search for then shows in full and the title reads more cleanly. Apply the same pattern across the category and your product titles start to look consistent in search results.
Why does the meta title matter?
The meta title (title) appears as the clickable main heading in search results and tells both the search engine and the user what the page is about. Google truncates titles by pixel width, so about 50-60 characters is a practical target. Each page should have a different title containing the main keyword naturally.
When writing titles
- Put the main keyword near the start.
- Put the brand name at the end and keep it short.
- Do not pad the title or stuff keywords; Google rewrites titles when needed.
- Make a promise that matches the page's real content.
Things to keep in mind
- Google may rewrite a title it considers a poor match for the page. Keeping the title consistent with the page's main heading (H1) makes that less likely.
- Put the phrase searchers use near the start, so the important part survives even if the end gets cut.
- Duplicate titles across several pages make it harder for search engines to decide which one to show.
- All-caps titles take up more width and come across as shouting.
