About Keyword Counter — Free Online Tool

Keyword Counter takes the keywords you name and reports how many times each one appears in a body of text, where the first occurrence falls, and whether the term shows up in the opening and closing hundred words.

Matching is whole-word, case-insensitive and Unicode-aware, so an accented or non-Latin term counts correctly and "art" is not found inside "start". Beside each whole-word count sits a separate substring count, which is how you discover that a term only ever appears buried in longer words. A keyword that appears in the body but not in the first 100 words is called out explicitly. Only the text you paste is searched, so headings and image captions count solely if you pasted them too.

Both the text and your keyword list stay in the browser, which matters most when the keyword list is the part you would rather not hand to anyone.

Verifying a target phrase made it into an article introduction, auditing a page against a brief that specified exact keywords, checking a supplied draft before publishing it, and confirming a secondary keyword appears anywhere at all.
