Paste your draft blog post to quickly check the word count and review keyword density. Comprehensive posts with sufficient word count and natural keyword distribution tend to rank better than thin or keyword-stuffed content.
Word count uses whitespace-separated token counting. Character count counts all or non-space characters. Reading time uses an average reading speed of approximately 200-250 words per minute. Sentence count splits on sentence-ending punctuation.
Text is processed entirely in the browser. No content is submitted to a server or logged.
Word counting uses whitespace-based tokenisation. Languages that do not use spaces between words (such as Chinese or Japanese) will not produce accurate word counts. Reading time is approximate — actual reading speed varies significantly by reader and content type.
