How accurate is this word counter?

Our word counter is highly accurate. It counts words by splitting text on whitespace, characters including and excluding spaces, sentences by period/question/exclamation marks, and paragraphs by line breaks.

What is keyword density and why does it matter?

Keyword density is the percentage of times a word appears compared to total word count. For SEO, optimal keyword density is typically 1-3%. Higher density may be seen as keyword stuffing by search engines.

How is reading time calculated?

Reading time is calculated at 200 words per minute (average adult reading speed). Speaking time uses 130 words per minute for a natural speaking pace. These are industry-standard measurements.

Can I use this for essays and academic writing?

Absolutely! This tool is perfect for academic writing where you need to meet specific word count requirements. It provides accurate counts for words, characters, sentences, and paragraphs.

Does this word counter work offline?

Is my text stored or sent anywhere?
