    Keyword density refers to the ratio (in percentage) of the total number of keywords indexable words on a web page. The preferred keyword density ratio varies from search engine to search engine. In general, I recommend using a keyword density of around 2-8%. Want to use this tool keyword analysis in real time to help you optimize the keyword density of web page.

    Although the search engines look for the keywords in the content to determine the theme of the article, you can't put the primary keyword in the article too many times so that it looks like "keyword stuffing." To get a good readable flow to an article, it is best to keep the keyword density around 2 to 3 percent.

    Keyword density is the percentage of times a keyword or phrase appears on a web page compared to the total number of words on the page.
    -Ideally, a keyword should appear only when it is needed. Too much overloading your page with keywords will let down the quality of the page.
    -It is considered that keyword density shall be 1-3%
    -I use a tool called ‘Keyword Country’ to check the keyword density and the tags used by competitors or my content writers.

    I try to keep it around 2%. Some sites its tough and it gets a little high, even writing naturally. Too high can definitely look like keyword stuffing

    3%-8%is the best.
    You should put keywords in the title, description, and keyword tags.
    You should put a keyword in every para.
