Frequently asked questions
What does this tool actually check?
We fetch your URL, parse the <head> section, and report: <title> length, meta description length, canonical URL, robots directive, mobile viewport, HTML lang attribute, Open Graph tags (og:title, og:description, og:image, og:type, og:url), and Twitter Card tags. For each one we tell you what's present, what's missing, and what to fix.
What is the ideal length for a meta description?
140-160 characters. Below 70 and you're leaving SERP real estate unused; above 160 and Google truncates with an ellipsis. Aim for 150 with the keyword in the first 100 characters.
Do Open Graph tags actually affect SEO?
Not directly — Google doesn't read OG tags for ranking. But they massively affect click-through rate on social shares (Facebook, LinkedIn, Slack previews) and rich-card SERPs on some queries. Higher CTR → more traffic → indirect ranking boost. Worth adding to every page.
Why does my page need a canonical tag?
Canonical tags prevent Google from treating multiple URL variants (https vs http, www vs non-www, with/without query params) as separate pages competing with each other. Without a canonical, page authority gets split and rankings suffer. Every indexable page should have one pointing to itself.
Does this tool store the URL I check?
We fetch the URL server-side to bypass browser CORS restrictions, parse it, return the result, and discard the input. Nothing logged, nothing stored.
