Keyword Density Checker

Keyword density is how often a word or phrase appears compared with the total number of words. It will not rank a page by itself, but it quickly shows what a page is really about and whether a keyword is missing, or stuffed in unnaturally. Enter a URL or paste text to see the top single words and two- and three-word phrases, and give a focus keyword to check its placement in the places that matter most.

How to use Keyword Density Checker

1. Enter a page URL, or switch to text and paste your content.
2. Optionally enter your focus keyword.
3. Click Analyse.
4. Check the focus keyword's placement, then look through the phrase tables for topics you missed or words you overuse.

When it comes in handy

• Checking a draft before publishing.
• Seeing which terms a competitor's ranking page uses most.
• Spotting keyword stuffing on older pages.

Frequently asked questions

What is the ideal keyword density?

There is none. Google has said it does not use a target density. Write naturally; as a rough guide, a main keyword well above 3% usually reads as stuffed.

Why are menus and footers excluded?

For URLs the checker ignores navigation, footer, script and style content so that the counts reflect the main text.
