Title tag length
Checks if the title tag is between 30 and 60 characters.
Why does this matter?
Google truncates titles at around 600px width, which equals approximately 55-60 characters. Titles that are too short miss keyword opportunities; titles that are too long get cut off.
How to fix it?
Keep your title between 30 and 60 characters. Put the most important keyword first. Add your brand name at the end, separated by a | or -.
This check scores from 0 to 100. Below 50 is a fail, 50 to 89 is a warning, 90 or above is good. After each crawl you see the score per page in your report, with a short note on what we found.
