About Word Counter
The word counter provides comprehensive text statistics: word count, character count (with and without spaces), sentence count, paragraph count, and estimated reading time (based on average 200-250 words per minute).
Real-time counting updates as you type or paste, giving instant feedback. Perfect for writers meeting article length requirements, students tracking essay progress, content creators optimizing for SEO, or anyone monitoring text length.
All counting happens locally as you type. No text is uploaded, safe for confidential documents, unpublished manuscripts, client content, or personal writing.
Frequently asked questions
Word counting splits text on whitespace and punctuation. Hyphenated words may count as one or two depending on context. Results match Microsoft Word and Google Docs closely but may differ slightly on edge cases.
Reading time estimates use 200-250 words per minute for average adult reading of standard text. Technical content, dense academic writing, or non-native language reading may be slower. Use as rough estimate.
The tool shows both: characters with spaces (total) and without spaces (letters/punctuation only). Some platforms limit characters with spaces (Twitter), others without (SMS). Check which count your context requires.
