## What a SERP preview helps you catch

A preview makes it easier to spot vague titles, clipped descriptions, repeated brand names, and URLs that are hard to scan. Search engines can rewrite a snippet, but a clear title and description still give them a strong starting point.

## Write for founders who are comparing options

Lead with the product or category, then make the outcome concrete. Use the description to explain who the product is for and what changes after using it instead of filling the available space with keywords.

## Frequently asked questions

### Does Google always use the title and description I provide?

No. Google can rewrite either element to better match a search. Accurate, specific metadata still improves the source material available for the result.

### What should I use as the canonical URL?

Use the preferred public URL for the page, including HTTPS and the final hostname. Avoid campaign parameters and alternate versions of the same page.

### Can I use this for a page that has not launched yet?

Yes. Drafting the snippet before launch helps keep the page title, positioning, and announcement copy aligned.
