Website Word Counter
Website Word Counter has two modes: scan Whole Website to crawl every public page through your sitemap, or switch to Single Page to check just one URL instantly. Either way you get word count, character count, and internal/external link counts — no sign-up, and nothing is stored.
How It Works
Format Your Code in 4 Simple Steps
Get a clean, usable result in just a few clicks — fast, easy, and completely free.
1
Choose Whole Website or Single Page
Use the toggle at the top to pick Whole Website to scan an entire site through its sitemap, or Single Page to analyze just one URL instantly.
2
Enter a URL and Set a Page Limit
Type the site's domain or a single page URL. In Whole Website mode, choose how many pages to scan — All sitemap pages, or a fixed limit from 25 up to 500.
3
Click Analyze
Whole Website mode discovers every public page, listing WordPress Pages first, then Posts, then other content types such as tools and categories, and scans each one. Single Page mode counts the one URL you entered right away.
4
Review, Sort, and Export the Results
Search or filter the Words by Page table, sort by word count or content type order, and export everything as CSV, Excel, PDF, or JSON.
Features
Everything You Need in One Tool
Built to be fast, clean, and easy to maintain — with no messy lines or hard-to-spot errors.
Two Modes: One Page or an Entire Site
Switch between Whole Website, which crawls every public page from the sitemap, and Single Page, which checks just the one URL you paste in — both in the same tool.
Total Words, Unique Words, and Averages
See total word count across the whole site, how many of those words are actually unique, and the average word count per page, all calculated automatically as pages are scanned.
Flags Thin-Content Pages Automatically
Pages with very little text are automatically marked Thin in the results table, making it easy to spot pages that may need more content for SEO.
Sortable, Searchable Table With 4 Export Formats
Search by URL, filter by status, or sort by word count or content type order, then export the full table as CSV, Excel (.xlsx), a PDF report, or JSON data.
Common Use Cases
Who Is This Tool For?
Whether you're working on a personal project or a professional one, this tool fits right in.
-
SEO Auditors Running Site-Wide Content Reviews
Use Whole Website mode to spot thin pages across an entire site before an audit, without opening every page one by one. -
Agencies Reporting to Clients
Export a CSV, Excel, or PDF report of every page's word count to include in a client report or content audit deliverable. -
Translators and Localization Teams Estimating Quotes
Get an accurate total site word count instantly to price a translation project instead of counting every page by hand. -
Anyone Checking a Single Page Before Publishing
Switch to Single Page mode to instantly check one URL's word count and link counts before or after publishing, without scanning the whole site.
Why It's Useful
Small Changes. Big Difference.
A little polish goes a long way — it saves time, reduces mistakes, and makes your work look more professional.
Use Single Page Mode for a Quick Check
If you only need one URL's word count, switch to Single Page mode instead of scanning the whole site — it returns results instantly.
Check Thin Pages First
Filter the results table to Thin to immediately see which pages might need more content for SEO, instead of scrolling the whole list.
Pick the Right Export Format
Use CSV or Excel for spreadsheets, PDF for a client-ready report, or JSON if you're feeding the data into another tool.
No Sitemap? The Tool Still Works
If a site doesn't have a sitemap, Whole Website mode automatically switches to discovering pages by following the site's own internal links instead.
FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to the most common questions about this tool.
A website word counter is a tool that reports word count for either a single page or an entire website, usually by reading the site's sitemap, and shows things like average words per page and which pages may be too short.
Whole Website mode discovers and scans every public page on a domain through its sitemap, while Single Page mode checks just the one URL you enter and returns its results instantly, without scanning the rest of the site.
Yes. In Whole Website mode, if a site doesn't have a sitemap.xml, sitemap_index.xml, or wp-sitemap.xml, the tool automatically switches to discovering pages by following the site's own internal links instead.
Thin content usually means a page with very little unique text, often just a few hundred words or less, that provides little value to visitors — a common factor search engines look at when judging page quality.
SEO plugins like Rank Math count only the words you wrote inside the content editor, while this tool counts everything visible on the rendered page with menus, footers, and template sections excluded — so a small difference between the two is normal, not a bug.
In Whole Website mode you can scan All sitemap pages, or set a fixed limit of 25, 50, 100, 250, or 500 pages before clicking Analyze.
No. Only publicly accessible pages are read during the scan, and results are not stored on ToolFlexy's servers — refresh or leave the page and the scan data is gone.
You can export the full results table as a CSV spreadsheet, an Excel (.xlsx) file, a PDF report, or JSON data.
Translation and localization projects are frequently priced per word, so translators use Whole Website mode to get an accurate total word count for an entire site before quoting a project.
By default it scans WordPress Pages first (Home, About, Contact, and similar), then Posts, then other content types such as tool or product pages and category pages, and this same order is available as “Content type order” when sorting results.
