I am able to see a constant increase in Keyword Count in Webmaster tools "Content keywords". Will it help to improve my sites listing in search results ?
The purpose of using keywords is to enable the Search Engine spiders recognise your site as relevant to the search criteria, so yes they are needed. However you need to make sure that the text is not over saturated with keywords, an acceptable level is bout 2-3%, this means the keywords should appear 2 or 3 time in every 100 words. Hope this helps and good luck x
Thanks Emma for your advice. I didn't insert keywords intentionally . if you look at my site, keyword comes from project and seminar reports. Are you saying that keyword density have an effect in search results ? i like to know about that .
Oversaturation of keywords can have an effect on page raanking as Google is now thinking like a person, which means your content should be easy to read by a person not the spiders. Putting too many keywords into a text would make the flow of text slower and more difficult to read by people.
