See how your page appears in Google search results.

What is the SERP Preview?

See exactly how your page looks in Google search results before publishing. This tool renders a pixel-perfect preview of your title, URL, and description as they appear on desktop and mobile SERPs. Catch truncation issues, test different title variations, and optimize your click-through rate.

How to Use

  1. Enter your page URL to fetch current title and meta description
  2. See the Google desktop and mobile preview side by side
  3. Check if your title gets cut off (marked with "..." if too long)
  4. Edit the title and description in real-time to test variations

Why This Matters for SEO

Your SERP listing is your ad in organic search — it determines whether someone clicks your result or a competitor's. A compelling title with the right length gets more clicks at the same ranking position. Testing your snippet before publishing prevents wasted impressions.

Tips & Best Practices

  • Google displays 50-60 characters for titles on desktop, fewer on mobile
  • Meta descriptions show ~155 characters on desktop, ~120 on mobile
  • Use power words like "free", "guide", "how to" to increase CTR
  • Include your brand name at the end of the title if it fits
  • Test multiple title variations — small wording changes can double CTR

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a SERP?
SERP stands for Search Engine Results Page — the page Google shows after you search. Your listing includes a title (blue link), URL, and meta description snippet.
Why does my title look different in Google?
Google sometimes rewrites titles if it thinks a different title better matches the search query. This often happens when titles are too long, too short, or don't match the page content.
How can I improve my SERP click-through rate?
Use power words in your title (free, guide, best, how to), keep it under 60 characters, include your target keyword, and write a compelling meta description with a clear call to action.
