How to use the Keyword Density Checker
The keyword density checker shows which words and phrases your content uses most and how often, as a percentage of all words. Switch between single words, two-word and three-word phrases, hide common words like "the" and "and", and add a target keyword to see how many times it appears, its density and whether it appears in the first paragraph, with plain advice about keyword stuffing.
- 1 Paste your article, page copy or blog post.
- 2 Optionally, enter the keyword you want the page to rank for.
- 3 Switch between 1, 2 and 3-word phrases and review the density table and the target keyword advice.
Example and practical tips
In a 600-word article about coffee grinders, the phrase "coffee grinder" appearing 9 times is a density of 3%. The checker flags that as possible stuffing, suggesting variations like "burr grinder" or "grinding beans" instead.
Frequently asked questions
What is a good keyword density?
There is no ideal number. Most SEO experts suggest writing naturally; a main keyword often ends up around 0.5–2%. Very high densities can look spammy to readers and search engines.
What is keyword stuffing?
Repeating a keyword unnaturally to try to rank higher. Google treats it as spam, so it can hurt your rankings rather than help.
Why check two- and three-word phrases?
Most searches are phrases, not single words. Phrase density shows which topics your content actually covers.
