Questions

How many characters show before See more on Facebook?

About 125 in the feed. Facebook cuts by line, not by count, so the exact spot moves with your words.

What is the Facebook ad headline character limit?

Meta recommends 27 characters for Feed and 40 for Stories, Marketplace, Search and the right column. Past 27, a headline can get cut on smaller screens.

What is the Facebook ad description limit?

30 characters, on Marketplace and Search results. Many placements hide the description, so keep the offer in the primary text.

Do emojis and line breaks count?

Emojis count, usually as one character each. Line breaks pull the See more cut earlier, because Facebook folds by line.

Copy fits. Now make the ad.
