Texto y contenido

Word Counter: Text or Any URL

Free, no sign-up: paste text or a page URL and get words, characters with and without spaces, sentences, paragraphs, unique words, reading and speaking time, plus the most frequent words and phrases. For a URL we count the page’s main content — without menus, header and footer — and the whole page for comparison.

We load the page and pick out the main text. JavaScript is not run — for app-style sites paste the text instead.

Dónde somos más débiles: there is no real-time counting, file upload, grammar check or saved drafts, and the text is sent to a server.

Cuándo elegir PromoPilot: When you need to count the words of a live page by its address (a competitor's, for example) or quickly get statistics of pasted text with frequent words and reading time. For counting on the fly while typing, an editor with a live counter is handier.
