Frequently Asked Questions

Our word counter is highly accurate and counts words by splitting text on whitespace. It follows standard word counting conventions used by most word processors and writing platforms. The count updates in real-time as you type, ensuring accuracy at all times.

Character count with spaces includes all characters in your text, including spaces between words. Character count without spaces excludes all spaces, counting only visible characters. Some platforms (like Twitter) count characters differently, so having both counts helps you meet various platform requirements.

Sentences are detected by sentence-ending punctuation marks: periods (.), exclamation marks (!), and question marks (?). The tool splits text at these punctuation marks to count sentences. Empty sentences (created by multiple punctuation marks) are not counted.

Paragraphs are detected by blank lines (double line breaks). Text separated by blank lines counts as separate paragraphs. If your text has no blank lines, it counts as a single paragraph. This follows standard paragraph detection used by most text editors.
