Count characters with and without spaces as you type and see how much room is left for title tags, meta descriptions, text messages and social posts.
This counter shows the number of characters in your text with and without spaces, along with words, sentences and lines, as you type. Below the editor, a set of meters shows how your text measures up against common length limits: 60 characters for an SEO title tag, 160 for a meta description or a single text message, 280 for a short social post, 2,200 for a photo caption and 3,000 for a long social post. Each meter turns red and shows how many characters you are over once you pass the limit.
You can also enter your own limit, for example for a form field or an ad headline. Every space, line break and punctuation mark counts as one character. Emoji and some accented letters can count as two characters, because that is how many places measure length. Nothing you type leaves your browser.
Yes in the main count, which is what most sites and forms use. The No Spaces figure leaves out spaces, tabs and line breaks.
Many emoji are stored as two code units in JavaScript, which is also how many websites count length. The counter shows the same number they will.
