How to Use the Word Counter

  1. Enter Your Text
    • Type or paste your text into the large input box labeled "Your Text". You can include plain text or Markdown-formatted content.
  2. View Instant Stats
    • As you type or paste, your text is automatically analyzed. Stats update in real time above the text box, showing:
      1. Characters
      2. Words
      3. Sentences
      4. Spaces
      5. Lines and non-empty lines
      6. Estimated page count (based on 250 words per page)
  3. Reading & Speaking Metrics
    • See how long it would take to:
      1. Read your text (based on average reading speed)
      2. Speak your text (based on average speaking pace)
      3. Understand the Reading Level (Elementary to Professional)
  4. Markdown Mode (Optional)
    • Enable or disable Markdown Mode using the toggle at the top. When active, the tool ignores Markdown formatting in calculations (ideal for writers using Markdown syntax).
  5. Markdown Insights
    • If using Markdown, detailed stats show:
      1. Headings (H1 to H6)
      2. List items (ordered & unordered)
      3. Code blocks (fenced & inline)
      4. Emphasis (bold & italics)
      5. Links and more
        Click "Markdown Details" to expand and see a full breakdown.

Have a question?

Find quick answers to common questions about Tezons and our services.
Words, characters including spaces, characters excluding spaces, sentences, paragraphs, and estimated reading time are all counted. Enable the Markdown toggle to also count headings and links within the text.
Results update with every keystroke as you type or paste into the input area. There is no button to press and nothing to submit.
Word counts split on whitespace and handle standard edge cases. Character counts reflect the raw text length and match what standard word processing tools produce for most content types.
All processing runs locally in your browser. Text is never sent to a server, saved, or accessible to anyone else. Closing or refreshing the page clears everything.
The character count updates in real time as you write, making it straightforward to check whether a meta description or social post fits within platform limits. Google typically displays meta descriptions up to around 155 to 160 characters.
