    On a typical content page(which is an article on my chosen keyword) which has an article of 500 words, How much should i include the keyword on that webpage, in the article (%) ?

    Considering that..I have already included the keyword in THIS webpages'...

    -H1 tag,
    -H2 tag,
    -Keyword Tag,
    -Description tag,
    -end of web page,
    -and 2 other sentences


    that is 6 times I have included my keyword already,WITHOUT including it in the article..

    How many times approximiatly should i include the keyword in the 500 word article considering I have used it 6 times allready optimzing the page?

    How many times should i include the keyword in the article ?

    Their is no real set pattern, the best advice i can give to you is start with 1 - 2 of each and see how you index, then you will sort of know which way to go with each.

    I generally use:

    2 H1 Tags
    1 H2 Tag
    Multiple Keywords In My Keyword Tag
    I write a sentance containing some keywords I want to rank in for the description.
    At the end of the webpage I put my copyright with link.

    My advice to you would be to look up the density of the top ranking site for this keyword, and try to mimic that.

    I would not do that, the may not know anything about SEO and just got lucky, a lot of people fall for that and they may rank ok, but ranking top is what matters!

    body of the article should have 3-4% keyword density.
    place keywords in H1 tags without making it spammy.
