What is keyword density?

Keyword density is the percentage of times a word or phrase appears relative to the total word count of a page. It's a quick way to check whether your target term is present enough to signal relevance — without tipping into keyword stuffing, which can hurt rankings. This tool reports the top single words and two-word phrases with counts and density, after filtering common stop words.

How to use it

  • Paste your draft or enter a live URL.
  • Check that your main keyword appears naturally (roughly 0.5–2.5%).
  • Watch for any term that's over-used relative to the rest.

Frequently asked questions

What's a good keyword density?

There's no magic number, but roughly 0.5-2.5% for a main term reads naturally. Higher can look like stuffing.

Does keyword density still matter in 2026?

Less than it used to — Google understands meaning, not just counts. Use it as a sanity check, not a target to game.

Can I analyze a competitor's page?

Yes, enter their URL to see how they distribute keywords.

Why isn't my optimized page ranking?

On-page is only part of it. You also need authority — relevant, indexed backlinks. Check yours with the index checker.
