SEO basics

What Is Keyword Density?

Understand keyword density, why it is not a ranking shortcut, and how to use repetition checks without keyword stuffing.

Definition

Keyword density is the percentage of a page or draft made up by a specific word or phrase. It can reveal repetition, but it is not a reliable ranking formula by itself.

How to use it safely

Use density as an editing signal, not a target. If a term appears so often that the copy sounds forced, rewrite for clarity. If an important topic never appears, add useful context where it helps the reader.

What matters more

Search quality depends on intent match, helpful coverage, internal links, technical accessibility, and trust signals. Keyword density can support that review, but it should never replace human editing.
