    • The easiest way to check is to count them yourself, but you do get lots of tools which will check for you. I think Chrome actually has a plugin which will do it for you, but I may be wrong.

      What do you exactly mean?

      Keyword stacking gives negative results for ranking.

      But yeah, backlinks are what matters the most.

    Check Manually percentage according to rules 2 or 3% is best density. So check keyphrase us 2 or three times in 100 words article.

    Hi Ruby ,

    This is very simple, you can check it by the following formula:

    Keyword Density = ([Keyword Count]*100)/(Total Word Count]

    Keyword Count: The keyword that you target
    Total Word Count: Total words in your article

    Regards
    Amit

        Keyword density should not be more than 3%. If it is greater than 3%, it becomes keyword stuffing...

      Keyword density (SEO) (%) is the percentage of times a keyword or key phrase appears on a web page in comparison with the total number of words on the page

    Actually, if the keyphrase is several words, the formula for keyword density should be
    Density = ( Nkr / ( Tkn -( Nkr * ( Nwp-1 ) ) ) ) * 100

    where Nkr is number of times the keyphrase is repeated;
    Tkn is total number of words;
    Nwp is the number of words in the keyphrase.

    This formula basically reduces the total number of words by the excess words above one in the keyphrase throughout the article. It will give a slightly higher keyword density that the usual Nkr/Tkn but nothing radically different for a 500 to 1000 word article.

    I notice that Easy Wp SEO wordpress plugin which I just started using gives two options for the keyword density calculation:
    Density = Nkr/Tkn
    or Density = Nkr/(Tkn/Nkr)).

    The second formula is going to give an artificially inflated keyword density which is completely wrong.

    Having said all that I agree that counting keyword density is a waste of time as long as you put it in the tags and so on and be natural.

      Ok i saw this formula here: http://www.vodahost.com/web-hosting-...-density.html/

      please correct me cause im trying to do a keyword density advanced checker online to help out the community and i really want to correct formula to use:
      using the last "correcy formula" lets say i have an article or a text of 100 words (lets put it easy so the math is faster than compared to 500 or whatever)
      if i have a:

      • Keyword phrase of 3 words which repeats 3 times through the text, if use the last formula my keyword density is: 3.19% (the keyword/phrase density sounds ok)
      • Keyword phrase of 3 words which repeats 10 times through the text, if use the last formula my keyword density is: 12.51% (the keyword/phrase density doesnt sounds that eal if im using already 30/100 and its just 12.51)
      • Keyword phrase of 3 words which repeats 20 times through the text, if use the last formula my keyword density is: 33.33% (the keyword/phrase density sound quite dodgy to be a true density, cause ill have just 40 words left and the phrase )
      • Keyword phrase of 3 words which repeats 30 times through the text, if use the last formula my keyword density is: 75.00% (the keyword/phrase density sounds non logical since i repeat everyting 30 times and i have just 10 extra keyword to use in the whole article)
      So this formula seems quite biased for me

      also here Live Keyword Analysis
      a real popular keyword density, which they also quote, if you put lets say 100 words and a 3 words phrase repeated 10 times, it displays a 20.4% density, this is simply not right


      can someone come up with which one is the real answer for keyword density on a phrase, i think i would use the one on the article before their "master formula"

      (Phrase Number of Words)*(Repetition of the phrase)/(Total Words in the article)

      any help?

    You can check it with Microsoft Word.Go to ms word then find how many keyword you have in that article. Then divide total keyword number by word number.

      check my above post and tell me the exact way for a phrase :S cause the one is quite unprecise


      from The Best Way to Calculate Keyword Phrase Density for a Text Block :

      Many manual formulae for keyword density are poorly suited to calculating phrases


      However, manual methods for calculating density (while they may be adequate for single words), are poorly suited to calculating the density of phrases of two or more words. This is because most fail to take into account the length of the keyword phrase. Examples of easy-to-find articles which nevertheless fall short in their manual formulae for keyword phrases are: "How to Calculate Keyword Density and What it Should Be" by Quentin Patterson and "How to Calculate Keyword Density" by Rena Sherwood.
      These articles tell readers to count the total number of occurrences of the keyword phrase in the article (e.g. via 'find' command in MS Word) and divide this by the total number of words (which can also be calculated by MS Word via 'word count'), then multiply by 100 to get a percentage.
      Although at first glance this formula may seem reasonable, it is only reasonable for single keywords, not phrases. This problem is best illustrated by considering an 'article' made entirely of a keyword phrase, for example 'fast red cars', e.g. in a 15 -word passage:
      fast red cars fast red cars fast red cars fast red cars fast red cars
      The keyword density of 'fast red cars' should intuitively be 100% in the 15-word line above, as it is made up entirely of the keyword phrase. However, the manual calculation described above would only result in a keyword density of 5 occurrences/15 words x 100 = 33%. This low value of 33% compared with the expected 100% is simply because the length of the keyword phrase isn't taken into account.

    Hello! I think there's a certain formula, just like a mathematical one to calculate the density of your keyword. But I think there's a less complicated way and a software to do this. Just try and research for them cause there's lots of them. Best of luck!

    used to use the word count function to find the total words in the article, then use Find function to highlight and count the set of keywords.
    For example, 1000 words article with 45 sets of "Christmas shopping", then I divide to get the keyword density.
