Keyword Density

Keyword density is important part of a SEO compaign . It tells how often a search term appears in a text in ratio to the total number of words it contains. If a keyword  appears two times in a 100 word text then the keyword density would be 2%.

Keyword density will be different for different search engines, however I recommend it to be less than 3%. If there is a keyword stuffing that a keyword appears too often in a  search engines will downgrade the website and will appear lower in search engine.

You can check keyword density on various search engines like google, yahoo or zippy etc

e.g

Density Keyword Repeat Headings Link
2.30% php 2 0 9
2.30% java 2 0 3
