Frequently Asked Questions About Paragraph Counter
How does the tool detect paragraphs?
Paragraphs are detected by double line breaks (blank lines between text blocks). A single line break within a paragraph is treated as a soft return, not a new paragraph.
What is the ideal paragraph length?
For web content, 3-5 sentences (50-150 words) per paragraph is recommended. Academic writing can have longer paragraphs of 100-250 words.
