Meta tags checker

What is the meta tags checker?

The meta tags checker fetches a web page and lists every meta tag found in its head: the description, robots, viewport, Open Graph and Twitter Card tags, and any other name or property tag. Enter a domain or paste a full URL.

Meta tags control how a page appears in search results and when it's shared on social networks. A missing description, a stray noindex or a wrong og:image are easy to miss and can cost clicks and traffic.

Frequently asked questions

Do meta tags still matter for SEO?

The meta description doesn't directly affect rankings, but it influences the click-through rate. The robots meta tag directly controls indexing.

How long should a meta description be?

Around 120 to 160 characters, so it isn't cut off in the search results.

What are Open Graph tags?

Open Graph tags (og:title, og:description, og:image) define how a page looks when it's shared on Facebook, LinkedIn and other platforms.

Is the meta keywords tag useful?

No, Google has ignored the meta keywords tag for years.
