Frequently asked questions

Is there a "correct" word count for SEO?
No fixed number — it depends on the topic and how competitive the keyword is, though longer, in-depth content often does better for competitive subjects.
Is it free to use?
Yes, completely free.
Is my draft uploaded anywhere?
No, the count is calculated entirely in your browser.
How is this different from Word Counter Seo?
Both count words for SEO purposes — this one is built around tracking the count live while you draft, rather than a one-off check of finished content.
Does it count words in headings and titles too?
It counts everything pasted into the box, so paste only body copy if you want a body-only count.
