Having the perfect meta title and description, like a great book cover, are essential in getting users to continue to your website. They’re also a part of having a well-optimized page for Google to drool over. However, all too often the content that makes up a meta tag is truncated when it appears on the SERP. How can users be hooked by your clever copy when it’s cut off before it even gets going? To keep your meta tag content crispy we’re happy to offer a free SEO tool, the SERPulator.
Here’s a quick look at what this SERP preview tool can do for your meta tags!
Simulate New Titles/Descriptions on the Fly
Test your new titles and descriptions to get the perfect fit with our character and pixel counter. All you have to do is add in your title and/or description into the provided fields and we’ll not only tell you how many characters/pixels will be displayed/truncated on the SERP but show you how it would look on the SERP. That is, you can see exactly where the truncation is likely to take place and how devastating it might be to your copy.
To this, as you adjust and refine your title and description the live preview will automatically reflect any change you make!
Fetch & Preview Meta Tags For Any Page
Before you decide to change your meta tags, wouldn’t you want to see what your title and description lengths currently look like? Maybe you’d like to see what other pages are doing with their meta tags (you know, some good ol’ competition analysis). Well, you can with the SERPulators’ Fetch Tool.
It’s pretty straightforward…. Plug in the URL… click fetch… and let SERPulator do its magic. Just like when you create your title and description copy with the SERPulator, fetching the meta tags from a URL allows you to see how the copy actually appears on the SERP.
Research the search term
Looking for ideas of what keywords to add to your metadata? Our Search Term feature allows you to search for the most closely related keywords to give you that added innovation in creating the perfect title! Our AI system finds the words that are most conceptually/topically related to your search in order to help you know what to include in your title or description.
Let’s Get Meta!
We designed the SERPulator with SEOs in mind. It was created to have everything you need for meta tag research on one page. Whether it’s analyzing the competition, researching search terms, or simply avoiding truncation, the SERPulator helps you get your meta tags done quickly and done correctly!
Not bad for a free SEO tool!
