FAQ Frequently Asked Questions

What counts as a word in the word count?
The tool counts sequences of characters separated by spaces, tabs, or line breaks as words. Numbers, hyphenated words, and contractions each count as single words. Punctuation attached to words does not create separate word counts.
How is reading time calculated?
Reading time is estimated based on the average reading speed of 200-250 words per minute for adults. The calculation considers text complexity and adjusts for different content types to provide realistic time estimates.
Can this help with SEO content optimization?
Yes! The tool shows character counts for titles and meta descriptions, helping you stay within SEO best practices (titles under 60 characters, descriptions under 160 characters). It also analyzes keyword density and content structure.
Does it work with text in other languages?
The word counter works with text in any language that uses space-separated words. Languages without spaces (like Chinese or Japanese) may not count accurately, but character counting still works perfectly for all languages.
What is the difference between characters and characters with spaces?
Characters (no spaces) counts only letters, numbers, and punctuation. Characters (with spaces) includes everything plus spaces, tabs, and line breaks. Both counts are useful for different writing requirements and platforms.
