Free online word counter

Words only — type or paste below; the total updates as you edit

0 words

Uses the same word rules as the full editor on the homepage (whitespace-separated tokens after trim). Want characters, sentences, reading time, and keywords together? Use the homepage. Nothing is uploaded; counts run in your browser. Site traffic may use Google Analytics (privacy).

Who it is for

This page stays minimal on purpose — one number while you revise. Students hit word limits, bloggers check article length, and editors swap paragraphs without drowning in secondary stats.
