About Word Counting
Whether you're writing a blog post, academic paper, social media caption, or marketing copy, knowing your word count matters. Many platforms have strict limits — Twitter/X (280 chars), Instagram bio (150 chars), LinkedIn posts (3,000 chars), college essays (500-1000 words).

- Instagram caption: up to 2,200 characters
- Blog post (SEO): 1,500 - 2,500 words
- College essay: 500 - 1,000 words
