About this tool

Keyword density measures how often a target phrase appears relative to total word count. It helps you write naturally while ensuring your topic is clear to search engines.

This tool runs entirely in your browser — your content is never sent to a server.

How to use the Keyword Density Checker

  1. 1

    Enter the target keyword you want to rank for.

  2. 2

    Paste your article, blog post, or page copy.

  3. 3

    Review word count, keyword count, and density percentage.

Interpreting density scores

A density of 1-2% for your primary keyword is a common target for blog posts. Zero percent may mean you forgot the keyword; above 3% risks looking like spam.

Use variations and related terms instead of repeating the exact phrase. Modern SEO rewards topical coverage over exact-match repetition.

Pro tips

  • Check density after editing, not before — final drafts differ from outlines.
  • Include keywords in H1, first paragraph, and one subheading when natural.
