Meta Character Count 1.6

Overview

Search engines limit the amount of text in each SERP result. Meta Character Count displays a live word and character counter for the title, description and keywords fields in Joomla Global Configuration, Content Categories and Articles (frontend and backend) and now also Menu items!

Be certain that your most relevant metadata ends up on the SERP and doesn't get truncated.
