Want to count words in an article?

     The first and foremost thing we look for when we start off writing an essay or article is the word limit. Whether it is an official limit set by others or just a personal limit to control the size of your work, knowing how much words are in your document is always a pain to find out.

     While it's not difficult to know exactly how much words are there in a text, thanks to Microsoft Word's handy feature that displays the word count on the status bar, knowing how much words that actually count towards the word limit is the real trouble, as a usual word count excludes all common words such as 'the', 'and', 'is' etc. 

     The website www.wordcounttools.com is a perfect solution to this, giving you a complete analysis of any piece of text. You can upload text in a wide variety of file formats or paste it into the given box, and you get quite a bit of details regarding the text. These include, word and character count, unique words count, difficult words count, readability level and much more.



A particularly useful feature is the keyword density indicator, which shows how often you use unique words. This becomes really useful in removing excessive repetitions of the same word in an essay, article or story, instantly making it better.
