On Page SEO: Keyword Density Experiment.
- SEO |
I created two near identical sites with a long nonsense word in the URL, title, headers and content. I created the sites within 20 minutes of each other. The only difference was one site was worded to have a target keyword density of 1.95% in 359 words and the other was worded to have 4.86% density in 370 words.
Once both sites were indexed - which site won?
The 4.86% site. This is interesting because many SEO folk aim for 2 - 2.5% believing more to be considered spammy.
The question is how far does it go?
My next experiment is a site added to the same target keyword with a 6.93% density in 332 words.
The question it doesn't answer is another hypothesis I have - which is mentions increase relevance, but excessively heavy density flags as spammy. To test that I am going to word another site with the same target keyword that has a low density - 2 - 2.5% but has significantly more mentions than any of these other sites.
Hope you find this interesting/useful. Of course relevant high PR backlinks are critical - for this reason I have done NO promotion on these sites and won't release the address of them or the target keyword - it could skew the results.
I'll be reporting back with the results of the further experiments as soon as the new pages are indexed.
