Meta Tag Analyzer - Analyze your site's meta tags

Meta tags are HTML elements that provide information about a web page to search engines and visitors. The most important meta tags for SEO are the title tag (the title shown in search results), the meta description (the description shown below the title), and Open Graph tags (for display on social networks). Properly configured meta tags improve click-through rate from search and help search engines better understand the page's content.

The optimal length of a title tag is between 30 and 60 characters. Google usually shows the first 50-60 characters of the title in search results. A title that's too short doesn't provide enough information, while a title that's too long gets truncated. Include the primary keyword at the start of the title for the best SEO effect.

The meta description is a short description of a web page's content shown in search results below the title. The ideal length is 120-160 characters. A good meta description should contain the primary keyword, be appealing to users, and motivate them to click your result. Google sometimes generates its own description instead of your meta description.

Open Graph (OG) tags control how your content is displayed when someone shares it on social networks like Facebook, LinkedIn, and Twitter. The most important OG tags are og:title (title), og:description (description), og:image (image), and og:type (content type). Without OG tags, social networks automatically pick a title and image, which is often not optimal.

The canonical tag (rel="canonical") tells search engines which version of a page is the original/preferred one when the same content exists at multiple URLs. This prevents duplicate content issues that can negatively affect SEO. Use canonical tags on all pages, even if you do not have duplicate content — it is a good practice.
