    hi there

    I'm in the middle of my SEO campaign and have spent many many hours genning up. I'm writing my content now for each page and trying to work out how many times, in total, i should use a given keyword in tags, titles, etc-

    I have read that ideally you should not have any keyword appear more than around FIVE times in total throughout a combination of their use in:

    1. Images
    2. Titles
    3. Alt Tags
    4. Headings

    on some pages i am using 3 keyword phrases- so spreading stuff out is not a problem

    on other pages where my keyword is more competetive, i use just the one keyword- this creates a problem where i have, for example, 4 images on the page to produce alt tags for, and where i may want 3 headings dipersed throughout the page in bold, capitalized, "H" tags.... in this situation, then combined with the use of the keyowrd once in the page title, i would have used the keyword 8 times

    has anyone any good advice on the maximum number of times to use the keyword on a given page in things OTHER than page text...

    for each page i have to consider incorporating the keyword into:
    1.page title
    2.title tag
    3.alt tags for several images
    4. H tags for several headings
    5. File names for images

    i dont know what the writer of the article meant by having "images" and "alt tags" as separate issues because as far as i knew, alt tags/images are one and the same issue...ie you name the i age by using the alt tag

    anyway, any advice would be appreciated
    thanks

    Unique and Custom Keywords are used in each page.
    same keywords used maximum times ,it leads to spam
