Pro tips

  • A paragraph is defined as a block of text separated by one or more blank lines.
  • If your text uses only a single newline between paragraphs, they will be counted as a single paragraph.
  • Combine with Text Statistics for even more metrics like reading time and unique words.
  • After checking paragraph count, you might also want to use our Word Counter or Sentence Counter for focused counts.
  • Use the download feature to export your text in various formats (TXT, CSV, JSON, HTML, or PDF).
