How to count words and characters online
Hit essay, SEO, and social limits with a free word counter.
Why word counts matter
Assignments, meta descriptions, and ad copy all have limits. Counting by hand is error-prone. A live counter updates as you edit so you stay inside the brief.
Use the Odin word counter
Paste your draft into the Word Counter. Review words, characters with and without spaces, sentences, paragraphs, and estimated reading time. Everything stays on your device.
Pair with other text tools
After you hit the count, use Case Converter or Find and Replace to tidy casing and repeated phrases before publishing.
