Question 1

Why does my Google result look different from what I wrote?

Accepted Answer

Google rewrites meta titles and descriptions roughly 60-70% of the time, substituting text it considers more relevant to the query. Writing strong meta tags increases the odds Google uses yours, but it's not guaranteed.

Question 2

What's the maximum meta title length?

Accepted Answer

Google displays roughly 60 characters (or 580 pixels wide). Anything longer gets truncated with an ellipsis. This tool shows a real-time character count and color-codes it green (safe) or red (too long).

Question 3

Does the URL format matter for SEO?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Clean, descriptive URLs perform better than long, parameter-filled ones. Use hyphens between words, include the primary keyword, and keep URLs short. Example: /answers/what-is-seo beats /p?id=12345&cat=seo.
