    In a simple word, keyword density mean how many time the keyword will appear in your content/article.

    For example, if I have a 500 words articles on "dog training" and the word "dog training appear 15 times in that articles, that mean keyword density for the articles is 3% (15 divide by 500).

    But don't use many same keyword in your content otherwise you will be penalized by search engine because of keyword stuffing/keyword spamming.

    Hope that helps.

    Here is my rules:

    For one word keyword, I use 4% to 7%

    But for multiple keyword phrases, I'll go lower. For a four word phrase I may only go 2% or less.

    It just isn't natural to have long phrases repeated many times.

    It is always better to be too low than too high. Keep it as natural as possible.

    Hope this helps...

    I use between 6-10% for each keyword on a page but they key is to keep it natural. Stuffing a page with keys words will get you penalised,:eek:

    Somewhere around the ~5% mark has been proven to work for many. If you're going over 10%, it's starting to look unnatural and @ ~2%, you're just not keeping your sites optimized for those keywords.

    SEO Moz recommends 7%, but you have to go with it reading well.
