What Your Score Means

Meta tags are the first thing search engines read when they find your page. A low score means you are leaving control in Google's hands.

Broken

0 to 39

Critical tags are missing. Google is writing your title and description for you, which usually means your page looks generic in search results. Fix the title and canonical tag first.

Incomplete

40 to 59

Basic tags exist but social sharing and technical foundations are incomplete. Your page is visible in Google but showing up poorly when shared on LinkedIn or WhatsApp.

Functional

60 to 79

Core tags are in place. Some optimisation remains. Focus on getting title length into the 50 to 60 character range and adding an og:image if missing.

Optimised

80 to 100

All critical tags are present and correctly configured. Your page is presenting itself well in search results and across all social platforms. Maintain this as you publish new pages.

Alokk's perspective

Alokk Founder and Lead Growth Architect, Groew

After auditing the meta infrastructure across 40 client sites, the pattern is almost universal. The title tag is there, but the description is either missing or duplicated across every page. When we ran a full meta audit for a B2B software client, 23 of their 31 pages had no og:image. Every LinkedIn share looked like a plain text link. Three weeks after fixing the image tags and rewriting descriptions to include specific outcomes, their LinkedIn-driven traffic to those pages doubled. The tags themselves take 20 minutes to fix. The clicks compound for months.

Common Questions

A meta tag checker reads the invisible code at the top of your webpage and tells you what search engines and social platforms will display when they find your page. It checks your title tag, your meta description, and social sharing tags that control how your page looks when shared on LinkedIn or Twitter.

Between 50 and 60 characters is the safe zone. Google displays titles up to approximately 600 pixels wide, which is roughly 60 characters in a normal mix of letters. Titles shorter than 50 characters leave valuable space unused. Titles over 60 characters get cut off with an ellipsis in search results, making your listing look incomplete.

Google will automatically generate one from text on your page. The problem is the auto-generated description is often a random sentence pulled from wherever the algorithm finds your keyword, which rarely represents your page well or encourages clicks. Writing your own meta description gives you control over the first impression people see in search results.

og:image is the Open Graph image tag. It controls which image appears when someone shares your page on LinkedIn, Facebook or WhatsApp. Pages without an og:image show no image at all or whatever image the platform finds first on the page, which is often your logo or a random element. The recommended size is 1200 by 630 pixels. Pages with good share images consistently get more clicks from social feeds.

Not directly, but fixing meta tags improves click-through rate, which is an indirect ranking signal. When more people click your result compared to competing results, Google gradually improves your position. A canonical tag fix can also consolidate ranking signals from duplicate URLs, which has a direct positive effect on rankings over time.

A canonical tag tells Google which URL is the definitive version of a page. If your page is accessible at multiple URLs, such as with and without www or with tracking parameters, Google may split your ranking signals between those versions. The canonical tag consolidates them. Most pages should have one. It is one of the most commonly missing technical SEO elements on otherwise well-built websites.

Fixing meta tags is one part of a complete organic search infrastructure. If your pages are not ranking despite correct tags, the problem is usually authority, content depth or internal linking.
