Dave’s Meta Description Analyzer

Dave’s Meta Description Analyzer helps content creators, marketers, and website owners write better meta descriptions for SEO. Beyond counting characters, this tool automatically detects keywords and phrases in your text while filtering out common words like “the,” “and,” and “of” to focus on what matters for search optimization.

The tool shows you exactly how your description will look in both desktop and mobile search results, since Google displays different character limits on each platform. It also checks for potential problems like excessive punctuation, special characters that might cause issues when your page loads, and spacing errors that could hurt readability.

The visual feedback system uses color-coded indicators to show whether your description length and content are optimized, making it easy to refine your text before publishing. Tips for writing stronger meta descriptions can be found below.
