The SERP preview shows how your page appears in Google results and when shared on social media. You can edit the title and description and see the result live.
A clear, inviting snippet gets more clicks even without a ranking change.
How to use it
- Paste the URL of your page.
- Press the orange button.
- Edit the title and description until both fit and read well.
Good snippet habits
- Title around 50 to 60 characters with the main topic near the start.
- Description around 120 to 158 characters that says what the reader gets.
- An og:image so shares look good on social media.
Tip
Google sometimes rewrites descriptions. A description that matches the page content closely is more likely to be used.
