Free Word Counter
My usual word count tool didn't want to load for me tonight, so I went searching for another one. I found this super-simple word counter. Just paste your text into the box, and it automatically counts words and characters. It's really handy when you're writing a blog post and need to know how many words you've used. And, it's free.

Count Your Words
Sometimes I really need to know how many words I'm using - especially when I'm doing paid posts. If they require a minimum of 60 words, 100 words, 200 words, I want to be sure I at least hit that minimum. Usually I go way over, but sometimes I have a hard time coming up with all those words.
I used to have a Firefox add-on that I could use, but a while back Firefox updated, and that add-on was no longer compatible. I checked a couple times since, but it was still no-go, so nowadays I just use the free Word Count Tool online. It's simple and quick - just copy the text from a blog post, or whatever you need to count, and paste it into the tool. Hit 'submit' and you get your number of words.

So, basically - it counts your words. Better than eating them, don't you think?What does it count?
- Words made out of the alphabet.
- Words made from a combination of alphabets and numbers.
- Words with an apostrophe ( ' ) and a hyphen ( - ).
Number of words: 178

I Added a Counter
I was visiting a blog today when I noticed a neat little counter at the bottom. It listed visits and pageviews, and what I thought was very cool - how many visitors online. So I clicked and found Histats.com
It was really easy to sign up and register my blog. Then the hard part was choosing the style I wanted for my counter. They have tons.
It's not just the counter, though. Histats is about stats - referrals, visitor information, stats for different pages or sections, and more. You can even use an invisible counter to keep track of all these stats without sharing it with you visitors. And, it's all free, with no limits and no ads.
What I'm going to do with all these stats I'm not sure, but it'll be fun tracking them.
