How to use Word Frequency Counter
- Paste the textCopy the page's text or its HTML source and paste it, or open a saved file. The counts update as you type.
- Type your keywordEnter the phrase the page is meant to rank for to see how often it appears and whether the density is natural.
- Read the phrase tablesSwitch between single words, two-word and three-word phrases, then copy the table or download it as a CSV.
Paste any text and read a list of every word with its count and percentage, most frequent first, plus the two-word and three-word phrases that recur. On this page every word is counted, stop words included, and phrases seen once are shown too; tick Leave out stop words to see only the meaningful ones. Useful for editing, for vocabulary work and for checking a text for repetition.
How it works
Word Frequency Counter is a web page that does its work on your own device. The file you choose is opened by your browser, changed there and saved from there; it is never sent to a server, so there is no copy of it anywhere to delete, no queue and no waiting for an upload. Most online tools of this kind send your file to their servers and work on it there, and many keep it for a while. This one does not. There is no account, no watermark and no limit on how often you use it, and the result downloads the moment it is ready.
Finding repetition in writing
Switch to the two-word table and look for phrases that recur more than the text needs. Editors use the single-word table to catch crutch words such as very, really and just, which stand out by count.
Questions
Are capitals and lower case counted together?
Yes. Words are lower-cased before counting, so Roof and roof are one word. Apostrophes inside a word are kept, so it's and its stay separate.
