Frequently Asked Questions:

How are emojis counted?

Most modern emojis are considered single characters. However, some complex ones (like those with skin tones or combined emojis) might be counted as multiple characters. Always double-check if you are close to a strict limit.

Why is character counting important for SEO?

Search engines like Google have recommended lengths for title tags (under 60 characters) and meta descriptions (under 160 characters). Using a character counter helps you optimize these elements for better search visibility.
