What is a character counter?
It counts every character in your text, including spaces and line breaks, so you can stay inside a platform or SEO limit.
How to use it
- Paste the text you want to measure.
- Pick a preset if you are writing for a known limit.
- Trim until the remaining count is zero or positive.
- Copy the final text.
Why use it?
Meta descriptions, LinkedIn headlines, SMS, and Instagram bios all cut off at different lengths. The presets are typical values and can be ignored if your platform differs.
FAQ
Do spaces count?
Yes, in the main character total. The “without spaces” figure ignores whitespace.
Are the presets official platform rules?
No. They are common starting points. Check the product you are publishing to if the limit matters.
