How many keywords per article?

keyword density 4% 450 to 500 words article

 

We know key words are relevant but can be different. We may use them as per our need. but same key word should not use more then 2/3 times.

 

Yes 3 Keyword is best

 

try to aim for 2-4& keyword density on your articles for optimal results

I would include about 2-3 keywords on each article.

 

Because of spam practices like that, Google has an algorithm set to limit the number of acceptable keywords to a percentage of the content on the page. Currently, that number is anywhere from 2-4% of total content.

 

would you like to tell me the link that you are using which affiliate network it belongs?

 

Thanks Every one.....All the people sharing their Wonderful knowledge

 

Google said in the last major update that it doesn't take H2 and 3s into account like it did years ago. It still matters but to have it in H1,2 and 3 would be an overkill. As for ranking factors, google sent searchmetrix a chart and H1,2,3 was nearly at the bottom of the list for factors.

As for density OP if you go over to the google webmasters youtube channel they out up a video about this... it quotes something along the lines of this.

"google does use density as a factor but there is no magic number. It's best to use your keyword in the first 100 words then a couple of other times throughout the article. Make the article as natural as you can''

We need to also remember when calculating density the keyword could be used in other pages on the site and titles etc. Allow about 0.5% extra for this. So if you have a density if 1.5% it's usually around 2%.

I use a density if of around 1.2-1.5% and use alot of related keywords instead... Some might say thats way to low but I've has great success with that so I stick to it since it works for me.

 

These are super old answers since all the recent updates on Google. keep to one or two main keywords, and make your article about relevancy, not about keywords. 1% (6x per 600 words, for example) is best, never go over 2% if you really want your article indexed.

 

Very correct. OP this is the advice you should be taking.

 

Thanks, Franklin. I appreciate your feedback!

 

Yes, it is said that 4% is the best. Moreover, you can check your content for keyword density in many SEO tools. you can use seocentro it's also a very good tool I use it for my own blog.

 

What happens if we use too much keywords?

 

If you use so much keywords then you will have negative impact for your website. You will face search engine penality and Google will treat it as keywords spamming.

 

1% to 3% keyword density looks natural and reasonable.
Keyword variation is very important.Use of LSI (means synonyms or related keyword) phrase is a wise decisions and google like this.
I always use LSI phrase of main keyword because this looks more natural to both readers and search engine.

 

keyword density is the matter in any article and Blog and its 3%. We can use use 2 to 3 keywords in any article.

 

Google does not like this. If you use too much keywords, it seems, you push google to take your article in high position on SERP. For this tendency google can penalize your site. High keyword density never looks natural to both google as well as your reader.

 

Best practise is, use your SEED keyword once in title, Highest 3 times in body. better use once. Try to keep your keyword at the beginning in your article. If need more then use long tail keyword or LSI version. Don`t over optimized your content. Otherwise google penalized you.

 

you have to use 1 or 2 keywords and a lot of synonyms... . Next part is private blog network

 

4-5 keyword in 400-500 words article
