Get Page Title from URL

This tool retrieves the visible document title of any public HTTP or HTTPS web page. You provide a URL; our servers download the HTML response (following redirects), parse the <title> element, and return the full text. We also extract og:title from Open Graph meta tags when present.

People use online page title checkers for SEO audits, competitor research, debugging missing or duplicate titles, and verifying how a link will appear before sharing. Unlike viewing source in a browser, you can check any URL without installing extensions — paste the link and copy the result.

Web browsers block JavaScript from reading most cross-origin pages (CORS). To read another site’s HTML title from your machine, a server-side request is required. DuskTools performs that fetch with a short timeout and size limit, then returns only the title strings — not the full page — to your browser.

We block private and local network addresses (localhost, RFC1918 ranges) to reduce abuse. Only public http/https URLs are allowed.

The <title> tag in HTML is what browsers typically show in the tab and what search engines often use as the basis for the blue link in results (along with your title tag and headings). Social networks may prefer og:title for previews. Checking all of these together helps keep branding consistent.

If you need to craft or fix titles and descriptions, use our meta tag generator alongside this checker.
