Word Counter – A Handy Extension for Chrome with Flesch Readability Scoring

Want to get the word count of a text from a website, but don’t want to go through whole copy-and-paste process? Then this word counter extension is for you. This add-on for Chrome helps you get the word count of a selected text from your chosen website without having to visit another page.

Aside from words, this tool can also give you the number of characters, syllables, and sentences of a selected portion in the page. It can also determine the Flesch readability score of the text. The Flesch readability score distinguishes the level of understanding of a text; it is to understand if the score is more than 90, difficult to comprehend if it is below 30, and moderate if it is in between.
