    Can anyone tell me that keyword density of any keyword in a post should be less of more?
    I am confused with it, also tell me that which one suites and is seo friendly?

    Keywords Research = P2*P2 /C
    P=Popularity
    C= Compatative

    High Density Keywords = High Popularity and Low Compatative.

    Keyword density is the percentage of times a keyword or phrase appears on a web page compared to the total number of words on the page. In the context of search engine optimization keyword density can be used as a factor in determining whether a web page is relevant to a specified keyword or keyword phrase.

    As long as your content is informative and fresh, then everything is fine, dont focus too much on the keyword density.
    Make them 1~3% is good enough generally

    if you are optimizing an article or page for a specific keyword 2-3% is a good number to stick with. dont forget LSI(similar terms) google wants to see you use similar keywords to your primary keyword.

    I feel this is a great place to step in and say "Don't Feed The Panda!"

    Ok, so everyone always says you need to have great SEO to get targeted traffic. In order to have great SEO, you have to have Meta this, and Keyword that, lots of backlinks from various places, and a wide assortment of other nonsense.

    So let me ask you. When your visitors show up to your website, and they can't understand anything in the content because it's all repetitive keyword stuffing garbage... Do you really think they are going to click your ads, join your list, or buy your product? Fuck no!

    Your readers want information that is useful and easy to understand. Not some jumbled up text that resembles an article written by a 5 year old.

    You are better off getting great content, and not worrying about how many times you repeat the same word or phrase. If you write about the topic, the right words will be used, and you will benefit more in the end.

    As i know, You just need good content, I never consider keyword , so use minimum keyword on your content with internal linking.

    Keyword density as it concerns content optimization, is the percentage that a keyword appears in your content, as compared to the total number of words in your content.

    Hi

    In my opinion there is no slandered for keyword density, keyword density must be according to your content on your web page. If it require 20% then go ahead. For better understanding you can read about the LSI indexing.

    Keyword Density is the percentage of occurrence of your keywords to the text in the rest of your webpage.
