Word counter questions
How is reading time worked out?
Word count divided by the reading speed you set, which defaults to 200 words per minute. Speaking time uses 130 words per minute.
What is a good keyword density?
There is no ideal number. Write naturally for the reader; if one word stands far above the rest in the table, it may read as repetitive.
Which words are ignored in the keyword table?
Common words such as "the", "and" and "with", and words of two letters or fewer, so the table shows meaningful terms.
