How it works

Use this tool with clear assumptions

Writers, marketers, students, and SEO teams use word counters to match briefs, check limits, and estimate reading effort.

Keyword density is included as a lightweight signal for repeated terms, not as a strict SEO scoring rule.

Formula / logic

Text is tokenized into words, characters, sentences, paragraphs, and estimated reading/speaking time.

Example

Paste a blog draft to check word count, reading time, repeated terms, and social character limits.
