What Is Keyword Density?
Keyword density measures how often a keyword appears relative to the total word count, helping you balance SEO and readability.
What is keyword density?
It is the percentage of times a keyword or phrase appears in your text compared to total words. A common target is around 1–2.5%, but there is no strict rule.
Why balance matters
Using a keyword too little may miss the topic; using it too much (keyword stuffing) reads poorly and can hurt quality. Focus on writing naturally with the keyword included.
