Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about this free word counter tool.

Is this word counter 100% accurate?

+

Yes. Our tool uses precise JavaScript logic to count words, correctly handling punctuation, multiple spaces, line breaks, hyphenated words, and numbers. It matches industry-standard word processors like Microsoft Word and Google Docs.

How is reading time calculated?

+

Reading time is based on the average adult reading speed of 238 words per minute. Speaking time uses 130 words per minute — the average conversational speaking pace. These are widely accepted industry standards.

Is my text saved or sent anywhere?

+

Absolutely not. All processing happens entirely in your browser using JavaScript. Your text is never sent to any server or stored anywhere. It's 100% private and safe — perfect for confidential documents.

What is keyword density and why does it matter?

+

Keyword density is the percentage of times a word appears relative to total word count. For SEO, keeping your target keyword density between 1%–3% is ideal. Too high (keyword stuffing) can hurt your Google rankings.

What is a good Flesch Reading Ease score?

+

For blog posts and web content, aim for 60–70 (Standard). Higher scores (80+) mean easier reading. Academic papers can go lower. Google favors content that's easy to read, so this score directly impacts SEO.

How long should a blog post be for SEO?

+

For competitive keywords, 1,500–2,500 words typically performs best. Informational posts can be 1,000+ words. Always prioritize quality over length — cover the topic completely. Use the progress bar in this tool to track your blog word count goal.
