How to fix title too long on Adobe Commerce (Magento)

Steps for Adobe Commerce (Magento)

1. For a product: go to Catalog → Products, open the product, expand the 'Search Engine Optimization' section, and edit the 'Meta Title' field (≤60 characters). Leave it blank to let Magento use the product name — ensure the product name itself is short enough.
2. For a category: go to Catalog → Categories, open the category, expand 'Search Engine Optimization', and edit 'Meta Title'.
3. For CMS pages: go to Content → Pages, open the page, select the 'Meta Data' tab (or 'Search Engine Optimization' in newer versions), and edit 'Meta Title'.
4. For global title suffix/prefix: go to Stores → Configuration → Catalog → Catalog → Product Listings in Search Results / Search Engine Optimization and adjust the title suffix so the total remains ≤60 characters.
5. Save the configuration and flush the cache (System → Cache Management → Flush Magento Cache).

What is title too long?

Every web page has a title tag — a short line of HTML that tells search engines and browsers what the page is about. It's the large blue (or purple) clickable headline you see in Google search results. When your title is too long, Google cuts it off mid-sentence and adds "…" at the end. Google's practical display limit is roughly 600 pixels wide, which corresponds to about 50–60 characters in a typical font. Keeping titles within that range ensures shoppers and Google see your full intended message.

A truncated title in search results looks incomplete and unprofessional, which directly reduces click-through rates — and fewer clicks means less organic traffic and revenue, even if you rank well. Google also uses the title as a primary signal for what the page is about; an overstuffed, cut-off title can dilute your target keywords and make it harder to rank for any single term. In some cases, Google will silently rewrite a title it considers too long or spammy, replacing it with text of its own choosing that may not align with your brand or target keywords at all. Fixing title length is a quick win that immediately improves both your rankings and the first impression shoppers have of your store.
