Frequently Asked Questions

What is the ideal keyword density for SEO?▼
1-3% for your primary keyword is the general guideline. Below 1% may signal weak topical relevance; above 3% risks being flagged as keyword stuffing, which can harm rankings.
Does the tool count stop words like 'the' and 'and'?▼
Stop words (the, and, is, a, in, etc.) are filtered out by default so only meaningful content keywords appear in the results.
Should I target exact keyword density for Google rankings?▼
Keyword density alone does not directly affect rankings. Modern Google uses semantic understanding. Focus on natural language, topic coverage, and reader value rather than hitting a specific density number.
Can I check for a specific keyword's density?▼
Yes. After pasting your text, search or filter by your target keyword to see exactly how many times it appears and its percentage of total content words.
What does high keyword density indicate?▼
Very high density (above 5%) often indicates keyword stuffing — artificially repeating keywords to manipulate rankings. This is a Google spam policy violation and can result in ranking penalties.
