Instruction

Text Analyzer & Character Counter

The Character Counter is more than just a tally tool; it is a complete text analysis suite for writers, SEO specialists, students, and social media managers. It provides instant, real-time statistics on your writing composition.

Crucial Metrics

  • Character Count: Essential for platform limits. Twitter/X (280 chars), SMS (160 chars), LinkedIn Headlines (220 chars). We show counts with and without spaces.
  • Word Count: The standard metric for academic essays, blog posts, and journalism.
  • Sentence & Paragraph Count: Helps evaluating the readability and structure of your text. Large blocks of text can be hard to read; this metric encourages breaking them down.
  • Reading Time: Estimated based on an average adult silent reading speed of 238 words per minute (WPM). Useful for Medium.com style "X min read" labels.
  • Speaking Time: Estimated at 130 WPM, vital for preparing speeches, presentations, or YouTube scripts.

SEO Optimization

For digital marketers, length matters. Google typically truncates Meta Titles after ~60 characters and Meta Descriptions after ~160 characters. This tool allows you to draft your tags and ensure they fit perfectly within the visible SERP (Search Engine Results Page) limits, improving your click-through rates.

Privacy First

Most "Free Online Char Counters" send your text to a server to process it, which is a massive privacy risk for confidential documents. Malangdows processes everything locally in your browser's memory using JavaScript strings. Your novel drafts, emails, or passwords never leave your machine.
