Question 1

How is the headline score calculated?

Accepted Answer

The score (0-100) combines character and word count, presence of power words, emotional triggers, numbers, and word balance. We also flag common weak words and very long headlines. Each factor is weighted, and the grade (S, A, B, C, D) reflects how well the headline is likely to perform.

Question 2

What is the ideal headline length?

Accepted Answer

For SEO titles (Google SERP), 50-60 characters is ideal — longer titles get truncated. For blog/social posts, 6-12 words tend to perform best. The tool checks both and tells you where you stand.

Question 3

Does the SERP preview match Google?

Accepted Answer

The preview uses Google's typical blue link styling and shows the title at desktop and mobile truncation points. Actual display can vary slightly based on Google's algorithm, query, and recent UI changes.
