Frequently asked questions
Is my text saved or uploaded?
No. Counting happens in your browser and your text is never sent anywhere.
How are words counted?
Any run of characters separated by spaces or line breaks counts as one word.
How is reading time worked out?
Reading time assumes about 225 words per minute and speaking time about 130 words per minute. Real speed varies by person.
Does it count characters with and without spaces?
Yes. Both totals are shown, which helps with limits such as post or meta description lengths.
