Title length (clarity) (WCAG)

Extremely short or long titles are harder to distinguish in a tab list.

Pass condition in our engine: Title length is between 10 and 70 characters.

This WCAG check is part of SEO-GEO scoring 2.2.1, last updated 2026-09-18. About 90 percent of the evaluation runs on the HTML we crawl, so you can verify the same pass condition with a free report.

1. Problem description

This is an editorial WCAG-oriented check (10–70 characters), slightly different from the SEO 30–60 SERP window. Both reward a specific, concise name.

2. Most common causes

  • Title is only the brand.
  • Title concatenates breadcrumbs into 120 characters.

3. How to fix it

  1. Name the page in about 10–70 characters.
  2. Put the unique part first.
