What is Word Counter?

A word counter is a simple utility that analyses a block of text and provides statistics such as total word count, character count (excluding spaces) and the number of sentences. It is widely used by writers, students, editors and SEO specialists to ensure content meets length requirements and readability standards.

This implementation runs entirely in the browser, meaning no data is transmitted to a server – your text stays private.

  1. Paste or type the text you want to analyse into the textarea.
  2. Click the Count button.
  3. The totals for words, characters and sentences appear below. Use the copy functionality if you need to copy the results.
