How to use the word counter
- Paste or type your text into the box.
- Read the counts, reading time and speaking time as you type.
- Check the bars to see if your text fits a title, meta description, X post or Instagram caption.
- Switch between 1, 2 and 3-word keywords to see which terms and phrases you repeat most.
Using it for SEO writing
- Check topic focus. Your main topic and its close variations should appear in the top keywords. If they don’t, the page may not be clearly about that topic.
- Spot overuse. If a single keyword is far ahead of everything else, rewrite some mentions with natural variations.
- Look at 2 and 3-word phrases. These often match how people actually search, for example “seo cost” or “dental clinic in pune”.
- Length follows intent. A quick answer can be short; a detailed guide needs room to cover the questions people ask. Compare with the pages already ranking for your keyword.
Using it for social and ads
- Keep the hook of an Instagram caption in the first line, before the “more” cut-off.
- For ad headlines and descriptions, each platform has its own limits, so check them in the ad editor before publishing.
- Speaking time helps you plan reels, YouTube scripts and voice-overs.

Frequently asked questions
How is reading time calculated?
Reading time assumes about 200 words per minute, a common estimate for adults reading on screen. Speaking time assumes about 130 words per minute, a typical pace for presentations and videos.
What is keyword density?
Keyword density is how often a word or phrase appears compared with the total number of words, shown as a percentage. For phrases, the tool counts every word in the phrase.
What is the ideal keyword density for SEO?
There isn’t one. Google doesn’t use a target density. Use your main topic naturally in the title, headings and opening, cover related subtopics, and write for the reader. If one word sits far above everything else, the text may read as repetitive.
Does this work for Hindi and Hinglish?
Yes. The counter handles Devanagari and other scripts, and common Hinglish filler words are skipped in the keyword list.
Is my text saved anywhere?
No. Counting happens in your browser and nothing is sent to our server. Refreshing the page clears the text.
