FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Is this meta description generator free?
Yes. Free to use. Fair use limits apply.
How long should a meta description be?
Google doesn't publish a fixed limit, and the cut depends on the screen. About 120 to 155 characters usually shows in full.
Do meta descriptions help rankings?
Google says they aren't a ranking factor. They help people decide whether to click your result.
Does Google always use my meta description?
No. Google sometimes writes its own snippet from the page when it better matches the search.
Should every page have one?
Every important page should have its own, written for what that page offers.
Will it make things up?
No. It only uses your facts. It won't add prices, numbers or claims you didn't give.
