Frequently Asked Questions
How does the word counter work?
Our word counter analyzes your text in real-time as you type or paste. It counts words by splitting text on whitespace, characters, sentences, paragraphs, and estimates reading time at 200 words per minute.
Does the tool save my text?
No. All processing happens entirely in your browser. We never store, transmit, or access your text. Your content is 100% private.
Is there a word limit?
No! You can paste text of any length. The counter handles large volumes of text without any performance issues.
💡 Pro Tip: For SEO-optimized blog posts, aim for 1,500–2,500 words with a keyword density of 1–2%.
