The Evolution of the Word Counter
Not too long ago, a word counter was just a simple box that told you if your essay hit the 500-word mark. Today, content writing has evolved into a highly optimized science. Whether you're crafting an SEO-rich blog post, a punchy Facebook update, or a precise Google Meta summary, counting words is only step one.

If you are a writer, how do you track this without paying $100/month for premium SEO tools?
Our free Character & Word Counter includes an intelligent Keyword Density analyzer. It filters out common "Stop Words" (like the, is, and) and instantly shows you the exact percentage density of your most vital terms.
