About

The Word Frequency Counter instantly analyzes any block of text and shows you how often each word appears — ranked from most to least common. Whether you are checking keyword density for SEO, studying writing style, or finding overused words in your draft, this free word frequency counter gives you a clear table with counts and percentages so you can make smarter editing decisions in seconds.

FAQ
What is keyword density and how do I calculate it?+

Keyword density is the percentage of times a specific word appears relative to the total word count. The tool calculates this automatically for every word: divide the word's count by the total number of words and multiply by 100. For SEO, a density of 1–2% for your target keyword is generally considered healthy.

What does 'Ignore common words' do?+

Enabling this option filters out high-frequency English stopwords — words like 'the', 'a', 'is', 'and', 'of' — that carry little meaning on their own. This lets you focus on the meaningful, content-bearing words in your text and is especially useful for SEO keyword analysis or studying writing style.

How does the tool tokenize words?+

Words are extracted using the pattern /[a-z0-9']+/gi, which captures alphabetic characters, numbers, and apostrophes (so contractions like "don't" stay together). All tokens are lowercased before counting, so 'The' and 'the' are treated as the same word.

Can I export the results?+

Yes. Click 'Copy as CSV' to copy the full frequency table to your clipboard in comma-separated format with columns for Word, Count, and Percentage. You can then paste it directly into Excel, Google Sheets, or any text editor.
