Word Counter

Paste or type your text into the box. The word count, characters, sentences, paragraphs, reading time and most used words appear straight away and update as you edit. There's no button to press, no sign-up, and nothing is sent to a server while you work.

A word is a run of letters or digits, so the counter works for Hindi and other languages written with spaces between words. Hyphenated words such as well-known count as one word. Punctuation and extra spaces are ignored, so messy pasted text still counts accurately.

At about 238 words per minute for silent reading and 130 words per minute for speaking aloud. These are averages from reading research, so your own speed will differ. The speaking estimate helps when planning a speech, a video script or a voice note. Both update live.

You can paste several million characters, enough for a whole book. Very long texts may feel a little slower because the counts update on every change. For huge documents, paste the text in sections if the page becomes sluggish on an older phone. Most documents count instantly.

No. It's counted in your browser and disappears when you close or refresh the page. Nothing is sent to our servers or stored, so you can safely check private drafts, assignments and business documents without worrying about where they go. Copy your text somewhere safe first.

Yes. You see both totals, which matters because some forms and platforms count spaces and others don't. Character limits on social media usually include spaces, while some academic and translation work counts characters without them. Check which one your form or client means before you trim anything, because the difference can be large.

Sentences are counted by their ending punctuation, such as full stops, question marks and exclamation marks. Abbreviations like Dr. or e.g. can occasionally be counted as sentence ends, so treat the sentence count as a close estimate rather than an exact figure. Word counts are exact.

It lists the words that appear most often in your text, so you can spot repetition, such as using 'very' or your product name too many times. For deeper analysis of phrases, the keyword density checker shows two and three word phrases with percentages. Then vary your wording.

Copy the text from the document and paste it here. For PDFs, use the PDF to text tool first if copying is awkward. The count then reflects the text itself, without page numbers or headers that word processors sometimes include. Remove footnotes if your limit excludes them.

Enough to fully answer the visitor's question, which for service pages is often several hundred to over a thousand words. Length alone doesn't rank pages; usefulness does. Use the counter to make sure important pages aren't too thin to explain your offer properly. Thin pages rarely convince.

Yes, as long as words are separated by spaces, which is normal in Hindi. Devanagari letters and matras are treated as parts of words, so the count matches what a reader would expect. Mixed Hindi and English text counts correctly too. Punctuation such as the danda is ignored too.

About four minutes for silent reading at 238 words per minute, and around seven or eight minutes read aloud. The counter shows these estimates automatically for whatever you paste, which helps when planning newsletters, blog posts or presentations. Shorter paragraphs make long articles feel quicker on phones.

Yes. Paste your answer or essay and check the count before submitting. Different institutions count slightly differently, for example with or without references, so remove parts your institution excludes before checking against the limit. Check your institution's guidance on whether headings, quotations and the reference list count towards the limit.

Yes. Type or paste on your phone and see the counts instantly. It's handy for checking a caption, a WhatsApp broadcast or an application answer before sending. No app is needed, and the text stays on your device. Counts update as you type. Counts refresh with every word you add.

Yes. It's free, with no sign-up and no limit. It's one of the free text tools from Marketiism, alongside a character counter, case converter, readability checker and keyword density checker, all running in your browser. Nothing is added to your text, there's no daily limit, and you can use it for business and client work.
