Google SERP Snippet Preview

Paste a title, a meta description, and optionally a URL, and see a preview styled to resemble a Google desktop result — with live character counts, an estimated rendered pixel width for each field, and a clear OK / “may be truncated” flag as you type.

Estimates, not a guarantee. Google does not publish its snippet pixel limits or the exact font it renders results in, and real results vary by device, locale, and Google’s own ongoing layout changes. The truncation warnings here are estimates modeled on Google’s typical rendering — an early warning, not a pixel-accurate guarantee, and not “exactly what Google shows”.

How to use it

  1. Install the extension from the Chrome Web Store and pin it to your toolbar.
  2. Click the toolbar icon and paste in your draft title and meta description.
  3. Optionally add a URL for the display line / breadcrumb.
  4. Watch the live character count, the estimated pixel width, and the OK / “may be truncated” flag update as you type.
  5. Tighten the copy until both fields read OK, then publish with the wording you actually checked.

What it can and can’t see

It requests exactly one Chrome permission: storage, used to remember your preferences on your own device. It declares no host permissions and injects no content scripts, so it cannot read the pages you visit, your open tabs, or your browsing history. The title, description, and URL you paste are processed locally, inside the popup.

Our own code collects nothing — no analytics, no telemetry, no tracking of any kind, in this extension or any other we ship.

One honest exception, disclosed: the extension bundles ExtensionPay to handle the premium upgrade, and that component does make network calls — it checks whether you have purchased, and opens its hosted checkout if you choose to upgrade. ExtensionPay writes an install timestamp for every user from the moment of install, and after a purchase holds a licence key and the checkout email you gave it. Card details go directly to ExtensionPay and Stripe and are never seen by us. The full disclosure is in our privacy policy. That is the only network traffic involved — your title, description, and URL are never part of it.

It is free to install, and the core features above stay free.
