    I recommend using a keyword density ratio in the range of 2 to 8%.

    I really think that 8% is a little high...to be on the safe side - 5% max from what I've been told.

    keep the keyword density between 5 to 8 percent, it will be fine.

    Don't worry about density. Focus on natural writing and using synonyms of the keyword you're targeting. Then follow up with a targeted backlinking campaign.

    Keep it around 5%, don't forget to spread it naturally and use of h1, strong, etc tags.

    actual written and expected KD is 3-5% but i think its the old industry trends. I think 8% should be the current trend.

    1-4% is considered ok as long as you can maintain all types of keyword combinations

    Try to not go above 10%. Generally, 3-5% is a good amount of keywords to have in your body.

    Yeah ! I also suggest you 2-5% density is ideal for google. However google gives more priority to natural contents. use synonymous for your keyword.

    Try LSI check

    For google, the keyword density should be maximum 5%. For better business, content should have quality. Keyword density will make the content tasteless and also google will penalize the site. Google says, "Write for the users/visitors not for the search engine."
