keyword stuffing is one word , is using the same keyword (meta-tags) repeatedly , so to get maximum hits , and visits , even if a page is not related to the "keyword" , keyword stuffing is used even to list that keyword to as a meta-tag...
Keyword stuffing is nothing but the extra and the unwanted use of keywords in your web content. This is normally done with several purposes in mind. Make sure that keyword usage does not harm the traffic factor of your website.
Keyword density should be 3 percent for a 500 words article and try to get quality backlinks for your site. Avoid keyword stuffing cause it hurts search engine rankings.
Are meta tags still needed, i read that they are no longer even seen by google crawlers so theres no point putting them in you should just write good content?
Keyword stuffing is basically..........suppose you are promoting keyword "good hotels in europe" then the keyword "hotels in europe" is by product of earlier keyword so no need to promote this "hotels in europe"......just promote the main keyword it will automatically get optimized
Agree with most of these comments, I try to get around the 2% level for a desired keyword. I think the best thing is to write content that makes sense, forget about the keyword density at first. Then analyse your content and adjust it slightly for your main keyword. 2 - 3 % is a good place to be! Jon
