    Keyword density refers to the ratio (percentage) of keywords contained within the total number of indexable words within a web page.
    The preferred keyword density ratio varies from search engine to search engine. In general, I recommend using a keyword density ratio in the range of 2-8%.

    Proximity refers to how close keywords are written together. Keywords and phrases should NOT be clustered together too closely on a page but spread out in a natural way.

    Keyword proximity refers to the closeness between two or more keywords. In general, the closer the keywords are, the better.

    I don't think that is still applicable now-a-days, I still believe in density but not in proximity.

    I think you need to read O.P.'s query more carefully. He is more interested in knowing about keyword proximity.

    Hello friends,

    Keyword Proximity means the grouping of the keyword density and keyword prominence. It shows the convenience of the two keywords for example first you take the keyword Hosting service and in the second sentence you take the keyword Hosting Company. In this it shows how the two keywords are related to each other. So it is the measurement which shows how keywords are related with each other in your content.

    Thanks and regards

    Keyword proximity is the combination of the density of a keyword and the prominence.Keyword proximity measures the difference between the keywords in text. It should be very low. It is best if they are immediately one after the other.

    Keyword proximity can be defined as the closeness of keywords to each other. Generally keyword proximity helps keywords to get in a bundle. This thing is done by removing fillers words like and, the, your etc. For more information you can also visit a blog, as this blog explain you all things in detail.

    According to me that Keyword proximity is the combination of the density of a keyword and the prominence. So proximity looks at the location of the keyword in the sentence.

    Our keyword proximity calculator tries to do that at it's very best.

    Keyword proximity refers to closeness of keywords. Your keywords should be close to each other in content of web page. Many people don’t know about keywords. They generally treats key phrases as a keyword. Usually we do not target keyword.
