Word & Character Counter

What it shows

• Words, characters with spaces and characters without spaces
• Estimated reading time
• Whether a short snippet fits title tag (50 to 60) and meta description (150 to 160) length

Private and instant

The counter runs entirely in your browser. Your text is never uploaded, which makes it safe for drafts and client work.

Checking titles and descriptions

Paste just your title or meta description to see if it fits the space search results show. Longer text is treated as an article, so length checks are hidden.

Frequently asked questions

Is my text uploaded anywhere?

No. Counting happens in your browser only.

What is the ideal meta description length?

Around 150 to 160 characters. Longer descriptions are often cut off in search results.

How is reading time calculated?

By dividing the word count by an average adult reading speed of 225 words per minute.
