Meta tag checker
Enter a page address. Verant shows the title, description, canonical, and sharing tags in the HTML, with a checklist of what is present and what to review.
The head of the page, as written
See what is present and what needs a second look.
The head tags behind Stripe’s share card, one per row with a verdict: the title, og:title, og:description, og:image, and twitter:card are all present and inside their lengths.
The check fetches the page the way a crawler does and reads the head: the title and meta description, the canonical link, the robots and viewport lines, the language and character set, how many translations are declared, and how many Open Graph and card tags it carries.
It also counts the first-level headings and shows the first one, so you can check whether the page has a clear main heading.
A title tag checker and a meta description checker
The two lines a search result can show, checked for presence and length.
A share card as a messaging app draws it: the og:image on top, then the og:title, one line of og:description, and the domain.
A search result draws on the title tag and, when it likes it, the meta description. The checklist shows each one as written, counts its characters, and says when it is missing. About 30–60 characters for a title and 70–160 for a description are plain writing guides. A share card in Slack, LinkedIn, X or iMessage draws on og:title, og:description and og:image instead: the checklist counts those tags, and the Open Graph checker grades them against the card they draw.
A canonical link that points somewhere else, or a robots line carrying noindex, changes what happens to the whole page. The checklist names each one as a fact, and says what to change when it needs changing.
A tag can be present and still be wrong
A typo in a title can appear before someone opens the page.
A fixes ledger: each row names the page or tag, quotes the flagged text, and gives the correction beside it.
Tags are copy. They need the same copy review as the visible page. Verant proofreads them along with the rest of the page and quotes each finding verbatim with the fix beside it.
Check the page under the checklist. The first 2 pages are free, no account needed.

Frequently asked questions
What are meta tags?
Lines in the head of an HTML page that describe the page to software rather than to a reader: the title, the meta description, the canonical address, indexing rules, the language, and the Open Graph and card tags that build a share preview. The title also appears in browser tabs. Search engines and sharing apps can use these values when they show a link.
How long should a title tag and a meta description be?
Use about 30–60 characters for a title and 70–160 for a description as writing guides. Display length varies by device and search result. A value outside the guide is a reason to review the wording, not proof of an error.
Can I use it as a title tag checker and a meta description checker?
Yes. The checklist shows the title tag and the meta description exactly as written, counts the characters in each against guides of about 30–60 and 70–160, and says when either one is missing. It checks one page per run; it does not compare titles across pages.
What does a noindex robots tag do?
It asks search engines to keep the page out of their results. That is correct on a thank-you page or a staging copy and a serious mistake on a page you want found, so the checklist always names it when it is there.
What is a canonical tag for?
It names the preferred address for this content. Search engines can use it as a signal when pages share the same content. The check compares the canonical to the address the page actually answered from and says when the two disagree.
Does it read tags added by JavaScript?
No. It reads the HTML your server sends, without running scripts. If your tags are written by a script after load, render them server-side instead.
Does it check the words in the tags?
Not in this tool. It reports what the tags say, not whether they say it correctly. A Verant scan reads the tags with the rest of the page for spelling, grammar, punctuation, and placeholder copy, 2 pages free with no account.
