    Hi,

    I'd like to know what the importance of the prominence of keywords are in your text.
    Are keywords at the top really more important, and using exact combinations throughout the text as well?
    > In other words in relation to my site (http://www.sabreakaway.co.za)where a keyword would be "Accommodation South Africa" how important would it be to have "South Africa" next to the word "Accommodation" every time I use the word "Accommodation" in the bodytext?

    Thanks,
    Joe

    I would at least have it written in exact order a couple times and for sure in the title....

    generally shooting for a keyword density of anywhere from 2-10% seems to work for most people

    Is there a point where the keyword density is too high? :confused:

    I think the "too high" point is going to be reached for your users before it's reached for google.

    Good point... you can only repeat a certain key phrase soo many times before it becomes redundant to your readers
