Questions
Do emoji count as one character?
Yes. Emoji and accented letters are counted the way people see them, as one character each.
What is the X (Twitter) limit?
Standard posts can be up to 280 characters. Paid accounts can post longer texts.
How long should a Google title be?
Keep page titles under about 60 characters and meta descriptions under about 160 so they are not cut off in search results.
Is my text saved?
No. Counting happens in your browser and nothing is sent anywhere.
