          It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with
          desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.</p>

Do not send the number as a string: 

$(".contentClass").textCounter('contentClass', 300);

Because in your plugin you are comparing a number to a string: 

if (title.length > textCount) {

Here title.length's type is number and textCount was string now it is a number.
