SEO target note. Google does not prescribe a preferred word count; the editable target is a drafting aid, not a ranking target.
Helpful writing checks
More than a word count.
For social posts
Switch to LinkedIn mode for shorter targets and quick readability hints before you paste your post into a social scheduler.
For student essays
Essay mode keeps the word target visible while you draft, so you can see what remains without uploading your text to a remote service.

Words and URLs
Letters and numbers form a word. Internal apostrophes and repeated hyphens stay inside the same token, so don’t and mother-in-law each count once. A complete https:// or www. URL counts once. Emoji do not count as words.
Time estimates
Reading time uses 225 words per minute and speaking time uses 150, rounded up to whole minutes. These are planning estimates, not measurements of a specific reader or speaker.
Heuristic—not a grade
The draft check combines the selected working range, average sentence length, paragraph density and repeated terms. It cannot judge accuracy, argument quality, originality or whether the text satisfies an assignment.
Sentences and paragraphs
Sentence count uses full stops, question marks and exclamation marks. Paragraph count treats each non-empty line as a paragraph. Abbreviations, decimal numbers, dialogue and code can make those estimates differ from an editor’s count.
Language boundary
English and French have stop-word filters for repeated-term analysis. Other writing systems can be counted as Unicode text, but continuous Chinese, Japanese or Thai text does not have reliable word segmentation here.
Private draft analysis
The draft is analysed in the current browser tab. The tool code has no account, backend submission or saved document store. The page loads web fonts separately; clearing the editor removes the visible draft.
