Re: keyword density

There are different opinions on this subject. Basically you dont want to over do it. My opinion is write the site so that it reads ok to to your visitor and put as many keywords as you can without making it sound odd or spammy.

Re: keyword density

Correct. There is no magic number. Focus on quality readable content. You'll benefit more from that then you will from keyword density,

Re: keyword density

The content is king. It does not mean that the content should be spammed with keywords. Some say that 6-8% is good, but even with 3%, some of the sites are heading the chart.

One word for every 5-10 letters.

Re: keyword density

Hello Angel69,
Well Keyword Density can range from 3%-5% but if the content that you are providing is giving relevent information with more density of keywords even then its ok.
Dont just fill in keywords because they lead to spamming.

Re: keyword density

For SEO : content is king. It does not mean that for getting better ranking you overuse your keyword OW Google may treat it as an spam page and may ban you.

What I have heard both Yahoo & MSN have more tolerance of keyword density of around 5% while google have strict requirement not more than 2%.
I recommend to use your keywords wisely, don’t over use them.
