@steve Mortiboy, thanks for your response.
I am familiar with the SEO value of titles and descriptions, but the thing is that I have over 50 of these websites that are syndicating content on a daily basis. I simply can not craft titles and description manually for all sites.
That is why I am trying to figure out if I can limit character/word count for title and description tag using a plugin or PHP code.
Thoughts anyone!
