How many keywords should I use on a page? I want to target as many keywords as possible to attract a lot of traffic, yet still have high search engine rankings.

Good question . and bring up two common instincts: focus versus counting. Modern SEO favors writing each page to satisfy a clear user intent and covering that topic thoroughly with natural language — not chasing a fixed keyword count or density. That approach is what Google and other search engines describe in their guides and what on‑page SEO best practices recommend (Google SEO Starter Guide, Moz: On-page factors).

Practical checklist you can apply right away:

  • Identify the single user intent the page should satisfy and pick a primary phrase to represent that intent.
  • Answer the likely questions for that intent; use natural synonyms and long-tail variants so the page covers related searches.
  • Place the primary phrase where it matters (title, H1, opening paragraph) but do not force repetition.
  • Structure content with clear headings, internal links, and useful details so the page is authoritative for the topic.
  • Ignore fixed density targets; focus on readability and usefulness instead (Yoast on keyword density).
  • Monitor real queries and performance in Google Search Console and split content into separate pages when user intents differ.

If you want to rank for many different concepts, create a logical site structure (overview pages + focused subpages) rather than cramming unrelated keywords onto one page.

One.
You should have a (more) general keyword for your home page, and more specific keywords for the other pages. If every page links to every page, the subpages should get ranking for your main keyword too.

It depends on the number of word on that page . You should use keywords in the density of 4-6% .
