    I wouldn't worry about keyword density... Just write your content for the users, the rest will come.

    It is more important to have the keywords in your title tags, header and anchor text and then meta description and last meta keywords. As Shawn says just write the site - don't worry about keyword density - use these onsite factors and the rest will come

    I don't think Google pays any attention to the KEYWORD tag. As Foxyweb says, focus on the title tag first.

    Google don't care how many times the word repeated in the meta keyword tag. But keep repeating the keywords is not the best solution, because meta keyword tag can't increase your rank.
