Length is a guide, not a hard rule

Google doesn't use a strict character limit — it's based on pixel width, and the cut-off point varies by device and by the characters used.

The keywords tag barely matters now

Major search engines stopped using the keywords meta tag for ranking years ago. It's included here for completeness, but your title and description do the real work.

Frequently asked questions

How long should my title and description be?

As a rough guide, aim for about 50–60 characters for the title and 150–160 for the description. Google may still rewrite either one if it thinks another part of the page better matches the search.

What does the robots tag do?

It tells search engines whether to index the page and whether to follow its links. noindex keeps a page out of search results; nofollow asks crawlers not to pass ranking credit through its links.

What's a canonical tag for?

It tells search engines which URL is the 'main' version of a page when the same or similar content is reachable at more than one address, which helps avoid duplicate content issues.

Does this cover Open Graph and Twitter Card tags too?

No — for how a page looks when shared on social media, use the Open Graph / Social Share Preview tool.
