What does this headline checker measure?

It checks word count, character count, whether the headline is a question, whether it includes a number, and whether it may include vague or filler words. It is a structural guide, not a predictive score.

How long should a headline be?

For search results, 50–60 characters. For email subjects, 30–60 characters. For blog posts, 6–12 words is a common guideline. Context matters.
