Why it matters

The <title> is the headline of the SERP snippet. A title shorter than 30 characters rarely says what the page is about, and anything past 60 characters gets truncated mid-phrase in most results.

How to fix

Expand a short title with the page topic and brand, or trim a long one so the meaningful part comes first. If your language or layout needs another window, set 'meta:title-length': ['warn', { min, max }] in ranklint.config.
