If you are into problogging, you definitely know the importance of how many words you have already typed. Advertisers always require the number of words for each paid post that you accept for your blog. Self-hosted WP blogs do not have an installed word counter, you can install a plugin for this though. But what I use is much easier and safer… I don’t have to worry if the plugin I got contains virus or not, or will it work properly in my blog… Let me share you what I’ve been using for far for this blog.
| Cut And Paste Word Count |
When you’re done with your composed article/post, simple cut and paste in the provided box (or the other way around) as shown below, then click the calculate words and that’s it!

Mitch Carvalho
I am a full-time home-based Marketing Manager by day, 24/7 Mom, and a Blogger/Content Creator in my spare time. Proud mom to 2 girls and 1 boy, Derelle, Erchelle, and Elric.
I am happy to share my adventures as I walk through motherhood and have to do most things on my own while my husband works miles away from us. Turning my passion into a profitable venture is another thing.
Authoring and managing this personal blog developed my social media awareness over the years.
From being an ex-OFW to doing what I am good at in the comfort of my own home – while taking good care of my 3 wonderful kids, I hope that people see me as a great inspiration when it comes to pursuing my passion and turning it into a profitable venture.
A giant leap like this is such a challenging journey but indeed is rewarding. A few bumps along this whole journey did not stop me from being the best version of myself.
Thanks Mitch. I’ll check out the link. I usually cut and paste my work on WORD and click on word count to determine how many words I’ve written so far. Sometimes I just type directly on WORD and cut and paste it on my blog.
Thanks for this tip.

@ Arlene : I hunted for this tool nung nag wordpress.org na ako kasi sa free hosted may counter naman eh.
i just use word, then paste the whole thing in my blog. meron na kasi spellchecker and word counter.
i don’t really give much thought about word count for a sponsored post. Even if 50 words lang required, if i like the entry, kahit 200 pa ilagay ko.
