Word & Character Counter
A live word and character counter with sentence, paragraph and reading-time metrics, plus a keyword-density breakdown of your most-used terms — useful for meta descriptions, ad copy, and checking a page isn't over-optimised for one keyword.
How to use it
- Paste your text — every metric updates instantly as you type.
- Watch the keyword density table: if one term is far above the rest, you may be over-using it.
- Copy the full report to keep a record of the counts.
From words to rankings
Word count is a starting point, not a ranking factor. Novaverb analyses your real pages for thin content, keyword focus, headings and readability in context — comparing them against what already ranks for your topic.
Word & Character Counter FAQ
How is reading time calculated?
At about 200 words per minute, the average adult silent-reading speed. It's an estimate for planning, not an exact figure.
What counts as a keyword here?
Individual words of three or more letters, with common stop-words (the, and, of…) removed, ranked by how often they appear as a share of total words.
Is my data uploaded anywhere?
No. This generator runs fully client-side in your browser. Nothing you type is sent to a server, so it is safe to use on private content.
Is it really free?
Yes, with no account. A Novaverb workspace is only needed when you want to verify, monitor, and track these files on your live site over time.
