Word Count Planner

Get a target word count range and a section-by-section budget for your next article.

Paste each ranking page into the Readability Checker to count its words. When you add these, the target follows what already ranks.

How to get the most from it

  • Length follows the reader’s question, not the other way round. Stop when it’s answered.
  • Adding the word counts of the top three results gives a far better target than averages.
  • Use the section budget to stop one section swallowing the article.
