❓ Frequently Asked Questions
How is reading time calculated?
Reading time is calculated based on the average adult reading speed of 200–250 words per minute. The tool divides your total word count by 200 to estimate minutes.
Does this tool save my text?
No. All analysis happens entirely in your browser. Your text is never sent to any server, stored, or logged. It's 100% private.
What is keyword density?
Keyword density is the percentage of times a specific word appears in your text relative to the total word count. For SEO, aim for 1–2% for your main keyword to avoid over-optimization.
How many words should a blog post have?
For SEO purposes, aim for 1,500–2,500 words for standard blog posts. Long-form content (3,000+ words) tends to rank better for competitive keywords, but quality always matters more than quantity.
