Why use Word Counter?
A Word Counter is useful when writing essays, articles, reports, or social media posts. Many platforms such as Twitter, LinkedIn, or academic institutions have specific word or character limits.
Our Word Counter helps you stay within limits by showing word count, character count (with/without spaces), sentence count, and paragraph count in real time.
It’s free, fast, and works directly in your browser without requiring any downloads or logins.
How to use Word Counter
- Step 1 — Type or paste your text into the input box.
- Step 2 — The tool will instantly calculate word count, character count, sentence count, and paragraph count.
- Step 3 — Adjust your text as needed to meet requirements such as essays, social posts, or SEO content.
- Step 4 — Use the results to refine and optimize your writing.
How it works
- Words: Counted using a Unicode‑aware tokenization (letters/numbers incl. accents, apostrophes and hyphens).
- Characters: With spaces counts all characters; “no spaces” removes whitespace (spaces, tabs, newlines).
- Sentences: Split on sentence terminators (. ! ?). Abbreviations may affect results like in most counters.
- Paragraphs: Non‑empty lines separated by one or more new lines.
