Word and Character Counter Online
Just paste or type your text into the box, and you'll instantly see how many words and characters you've used. No sign-up, no download, no waiting. It works right in your browser, completely free.
A lot of writers find themselves constantly switching between their document and a separate counter. That slows things down. With this tool, you can keep it open in a tab and check your count anytime. It updates in real time, so every keystroke is reflected immediately.
It's also surprisingly useful for things you might not expect. Email subject lines, for instance, perform better when they're under 60 characters. Meta descriptions for SEO should sit between 150 and 160 characters. Instagram captions cut off after 125 characters in the feed. This tool helps you hit those targets without guessing.
Students writing essays with strict word limits will find it handy too. Instead of relying on Microsoft Word or Google Docs (which aren't always open, or accurate for plain text), you can paste your draft here and get an instant count. It's also great for checking content you didn't write yourself — like if you want to verify the length of a client's copy before publishing it.
There's nothing complicated here. It's one of those tools that just works, and that's kind of the point. You shouldn't need a tutorial to count words.
