FAQ

What counts as a blog post that is too long?

There is no universal limit, but most readers lose focus after roughly 1,500–2,000 words unless the structure is strong. This tool warns you when your draft exceeds comfortable reading length and suggests whether to cut, split, or restructure.

How is reading time calculated?

Reading time is estimated from your word count using an average adult reading speed of about 200–250 words per minute. It gives you a realistic sense of how long a visitor must stay engaged.

What does the readability score mean?

The readability score reflects how easy your text is to follow based on sentence length and word complexity. A lower score means readers may need more effort, which is a signal to simplify or break up dense sections.

Is this tool only for SEO?

No. It is deliberately focused on reading experience. It helps you judge whether your post respects your reader's time, rather than chasing keyword counts or search rankings.

Does it store my draft?

No. Your text is processed only to produce the analysis and is not saved or shared. You can safely paste unpublished drafts.

Example input

Try it with this sample — paste it into the box above:

Blogging has changed a lot over the past decade. In the early days, writers focused on keywords and search rankings. Today, readers expect clarity, structure, and respect for their time. A long post is not automatically bad, but a long post without clear sections, short paragraphs, and a strong through-line will lose most readers before the halfway point. This tool helps you see the raw length of your draft, estimate how long it will take to read, and decide whether you need to cut, split, or restructure before you hit publish.
