Keyword Density Analysis Tools and Resources

Keyword Density Checks and Analysis of Your Web Pages

Return to Search Engine Optimization Resources Home

I do not recommend spending too much time worrying about keyword density. Yes, repeat the main keyword phrase a couple times in the content, and have it in the title and also in one or more image alt tags, but more is -- most of the time -- unnecessary. Being 100% right on the money with keyword density will increase your ranking slightly, but other things, like links, have a much bigger impact and take less time to get right.

Only if you are in a very competitive industry where every little bit of boost in ranking makes a difference is it worth spending your time tweaking keyword density. The density should be between 2% and 7%, but the exact optimum density varies from one search engine to the next. If you optimize the density for one search engine -- that is, if you are able to find the exact density to gain ranking in the SERPs of one search engine -- chances are that it will NOT dramatically affect your ranking and, worse, it could hurt your ranking on another search engine.
