Tips for Effective Writing

  1. Vary Sentence Length: Aim for a mix of short (5-10 words), medium (15-20 words), and occasional long sentences (25-30 words).
  2. Watch Paragraph Length: Online readers prefer paragraphs of 3-4 sentences or about 100 words.
  3. Monitor Word Length: Average word length of 4-5 characters is ideal for general audiences.
  4. Check Readability: Aim for Flesch scores between 60-80 for most general content.
  5. Limit Repetition: If any word appears more than 5% of the time, consider synonyms.

Frequently Asked Questions

How accurate is the word count?

Our word count follows standard publishing conventions, matching what you'd see in Microsoft Word or Google Docs. Hyphenated words (like "state-of-the-art") count as one word, as do contractions ("don't").

How is reading time calculated?

We use an average of 200 words per minute for general content. For more precise estimates, consider that technical material reads slower (150 wpm) while easy content reads faster (250 wpm).

What counts as a sentence?

We detect sentences ending with periods, question marks, or exclamation points followed by a space or the end of text. This handles most cases but may miscount abbreviations or decimal points.

Can I analyze documents or PDFs?

Currently, you need to copy-paste text into the tool. For documents, copy the text from your word processor first. We're working on direct file uploads for future versions.

Is my text stored or analyzed for other purposes?

No. All analysis happens in your browser, and we don't store or transmit your text to our servers. Your content remains completely private.
