Tokens = letters, digits, underscore, Cyrillic; case-insensitive. Up to 50 rows, highest count first (A→Z on ties).

Frequency breakdown stays in this tab; use Copy frequency list when you need plain-text ranks elsewhere.

Length & format benchmarks

Use these as sense checks while you edit-not rigid rules. Every app counts characters and “words” a little differently.

  • Blog posts: ~800-2,000 words is a common full-article band before you split into a series.
  • SEO explainers: ~1,000-2,500 words when you need depth, headings, and internal links without filler.
  • Social: ~100-300 characters for a tight single post; threads need clear breaks.
  • Academic abstracts: often ~150-300 words-always match the venue PDF.

What this is for

Use Word Frequency when you need to see what repeats in marketing copy, student essays, lyrics, or long chat logs before you tighten wording or check jargon.

  • Watch the #1 hero, diversity, and top 50 rows update on every keystroke
  • Pair with Keyword density when you care about one focus term, or Word counter for full-doc stats
  • Normalize case first with Text case converter if mixed caps skews tokens
  • Use Copy frequency list (or CSV/Excel/PDF) when you need the same table in notes or tickets

Remember: Hyphens and punctuation often split tokens; this tool follows the word-style rules in the gray hint.

Bookmark this page-word-frequency passes are a repeat part of editing and SEO reviews. One tab beats cluttered analyzer sites.

When live word frequency wins

You are tuning SEO copy, grading student essays, or checking song lyrics and need the fastest view of what repeats. The hero shows your top token’s count; diversity shows how varied vocabulary is versus length-computed locally.

How it works

  1. Paste or type in the left field.
  2. Watch the teal Live frequency panel-big #1 count and word, then stats and the scrollable table.
  3. Read What this means / Next, then Copy frequency list for a plain-text export.

What each metric means

  • #1 count - occurrences of the single most frequent token.
  • Unique words - distinct tokens after normalization.
  • Total tokens - every word-like token counted (repeats included).
  • Diversity - unique ÷ total × 100; higher usually means richer vocabulary per length.
  • Reading time - rough minutes at ~200 wpm on your paste.
  • Share vs #1 - bar width scales each row to the top count.

Privacy: Your paste is not sent to us for counting; it stays in this tab until you reload, clear, or copy it yourself.

FAQ

  • Is anything uploaded? No-counts and copy stay in this tab.
  • Why doesn’t my hyphenated word stay together? Hyphens often split tokens; counts treat each side as its own word token.
  • Same count, which word is first? We sort A→Z when counts tie.
  • What does Copy frequency list include? Header stats plus word: count lines for visible rows.
  • More than 50 unique words? The table shows the top 50 by frequency; totals still reflect the full corpus.
  • Mobile? Yes-the panel stacks and the table scrolls inside the card.
