Meta Tag Generator

Fill the fields once and get a clean, complete block of head tags you can paste straight into your page.

How Meta Tag Generator works

Generate title, description, canonical, robots, Open Graph and Twitter card tags in one click, with live character counters. Everything happens inside this page: the tool reads your input, runs the calculation or conversion locally, and hands the result back to you. Nothing is transmitted, because there is no backend to transmit it to.

That design choice is deliberate. Most free tool sites upload your files to a server, process them there, and quietly keep a copy. Toolcin cannot do that — the site is a set of static files. If your connection dropped the moment the page finished loading, every tool would still work.

What it writes

Fill in the title, description, URL, share image and site name, and the tool produces the tags a page needs: the title element, the meta description, the canonical link, and the Open Graph and Twitter card tags that control how the page looks when shared.

Open Graph is what Facebook, LinkedIn and WhatsApp read. Twitter cards are what X reads. Both sets are emitted because a page that only has one of them looks broken in half the places it is shared.

The lengths that matter

A title is truncated in search results at roughly 60 characters and a description at roughly 155. Titles are also cut to a pixel width, so a string of capital letters is truncated sooner than the same number of narrow characters.

The share image should be 1200 × 630. Smaller images get scaled up and look soft; a different ratio gets cropped differently on each platform.

Tags people forget

The canonical URL must be absolute and match the page you are on — a canonical pointing at another page tells search engines to ignore this one. og:url should equal it, otherwise a shared link credits a different address.

The description is not a ranking factor, but it is the ad copy for your page in a result list. A missing one means Google invents a snippet from the body, which is usually worse.

Good to know

  • Works offline once loaded, including on flights and in locked-down networks.
  • No file size limit beyond your device's own memory.
  • Free to use, with no account and no usage counter.
  • Results are produced locally, so they are not logged or shared with anyone.

Questions

How long should a title and description be?

Aim for under 60 characters in the title and under 160 in the description — the counters turn red when Google would cut them.

Which tags are generated?

Title, description, canonical, robots, author, charset, viewport, the full Open Graph set, and Twitter card tags.

Should the title include the brand?

Usually at the end, if it fits inside 60 characters. On the home page the brand alone can be the title.

Do I need both OG and Twitter tags?

Twitter falls back to Open Graph if its own tags are missing, but setting them explicitly avoids surprises.
