Keyword Density

What keyword density per keyword is too much?

 

I have read that anything over 7% is probably not going to help as much. Mix it up using variations.

 

For me, I only use around 2% to 3% keyword density. Around 5% to 7% is too much already, and it will cost your content to be suspicious even if it's relevant to the topic.

 

I don't believe in keyword density just write it naturally. I would concentrate more on keyword prominence and keyword proximity. Just like what I read from the post of benj arriola

 

With or without keyword density, it's up to you. I agree to the point in writing naturally, but it's just options you know. It's a win-win situation as long your content is unique and well-informative.

 

keyword density is must for search engine value. But how much % ?

Its really unknown but most think it should not be more than 5%.

 

i target around 10%-30% - look and see what your competitors are doing for the target keyword phrase

 

It should be round about 5-6 %. Write for your readers rather than search engine. Your visitors should be your first priority ... Honey!

 

i have website and my only problem is with tags and ketwords

 

completely agree....but no spam..

 

I always go with with the phrase " write for user not for search engine". And do so. If user don't write your post what's the use of it? Anyway I never cross 2% of the density. With 2% density your natural and seo friendly as well.

 

I usually do between 3-6% keyword density but my optimal is 4.5% (or at least that's what I aim for while still making my text look natural!)

 

Thanks for the info guys.

 

I usally use 3 to 4 keywords density.....Around 5% to 7% is too much

 

url keyword - 3 times per 350 words.

 

It doesn't matter, I've seen sites ranking high with 13% and some with 2-3%..

 

There is no set no, for keyword density. but you keep it to 4 to 5%

 

I keep it at 4%

 

4% - 5% per keyword is enough.

 

There is no set rule but your content should look natural not to trick search engine
