      If you do indeed, keyword stuff, your site will not look good to google.

      If that's not the search engine you are going for, then have a go at stuffing
      your keywords!

      Getting your keyword in at the best/most places, is not keyword stuffing.

    Keyword stuffing is a practice in which webmasters load their pages with instances of commonly searched for keywords. The practice is designed to direct traffic to the site by raising the site's ranking in search results, in the hopes of increasing site income. However, keyword stuffing can be an unwise choice; many search engines penalize for keyword stuffing, and they use complex algorithms to detect signs of keyword stuffing, even when it is cleverly done,Keyword stuffing is a Black hat seo technique used to add unnecessarily a good number of instances of the targeted keyword phrase to a web page to showcase higher level of relevancy to the search engines and gain top most positions in the search result for those particular keywords. Although, such purposeful integration of several specific phrases in the content of the web page may result in tempo temporary rank benefits but in the long run, it may lead to a series of problems.

      Good day Warriors!
      Keywords are such an important part of the substance of your site's content, they require extra special attention. You could even say that using the keyword is a "rite of passage" skill that takes time to acquire. For example, if your site sells knives, you might think the word "knife" would be the best word to use. Well, you may or may not be right, but it is a good bet that this site sells various types of "knives." Being able to select the right keywords requires a good understanding of your target audience and what they are looking for.

      I would not work with more than 5% of keywords repeated among the articles for seo.
      the ideal rate its between 2% to 4% of related keywords in an article. And make looking natural ok?

    This may have worked 10+ years ago. But with proper SEO (offsite) you can rank without a single occurence of the targeted keyword on the page you are trying to rank for.

    keyword stuffing is no longer working with all modern search engines like the big G and Y.
    They will see it as a way your site has used to cheat/spam the SEs.
    That's not a good news in the sense of SERP ranking.

    I've seen some websites with stuff keywords on it that are ranking in the top 10 of Google. But I don't think those websites will be able to hold their high position because the big G will eventually catch them.

    Firstly, create a good quality article and write this for humans. Then, re-read this and add your target keyword/phrase where you feel it is required where it looks most natural. Then, you can try to add synonyms or variations of the same keyword in the content so G and other SE's can figure out the theme of your page.

    When reading the article back, ask yourself, is this how I would talk to someone? IF the answer is yes then great publish the article, if not then you might have an issue.

    Avoid keyword stuffing like its a disease because its just not worth it.

    keyword stuffing does have a negative effect on your site. it may look as a spam on search engines.. and besides too much is not good at anything.. just use 3 to 5 keywords, and that's okay.
