Keyword density

Although keyword density is not as heavily measured as it used to be, it's still fairly important. I have found that if you plan and write eloquent enough, that you can repeat a phrase within content without it appearing too keyword rich. It still reads natural and isn't obnoxious to the site visitor.

I wrote an article to address the topic of keyword density that I'd like to share. Hopefully, it helps some of the newer bloggers and website admins out there:

Good Luck!

Just placing keywords based on calculations can't help you too much. Better you should write unique content, place natural keywords where they are needed, and try to place keywords within first two paragraphs.

 

I suggest to have 4-5% of keyword density is enough. Dont let your site exceed this limit.

 

maximum density should be 4-8%

 

i see the top ranking websites are not so concentrated on keywords density,
the unique and quality content counts.

 

2%-3%. Any more than that could be considered spam.

 

useful reply, thanks for give the time to read my post from your busy schedule.

 

3-5 is good enough !

 

I don't understand why you should never write for search engines. Isn't that the point of getting views. I thought if your site is easily searchable you get more traffic?
