Article Word Counter is a free Chrome add-on developed by NimTools. Designed specifically for bloggers and article writers, this tool aims to solve the problem of manually checking the word count of other articles for reference. By automating the process, it saves valuable time and helps writers determine the ideal length for their own articles.

The inspiration behind creating this add-on came from a blogger friend who would manually perform keyword research by typing keywords into Google search and checking the average length of other articles. This process was time-consuming, especially when analyzing multiple pages.

With Article Word Counter, users can easily obtain the word count of an article by fetching the structure commonly used by many websites. This makes it convenient for writers to quickly assess the length of an article without having to copy and paste the entire text into a separate program. Additionally, users have the option to select specific text and instantly view the character count in real-time.

For a more in-depth understanding of this add-on, it is recommended to install and try it yourself. Article Word Counter is completely free, safe, and does not involve any data exchange, ensuring 100% security.

In the latest update (version 1.0.1), minor bugs have been fixed, and a new default "Off" option has been added for user convenience.
