About this keyword density checker
Keyword density is the number of times a word appears divided by the total number of words. Google does not publish an ideal figure, and many writers aim for 1 to 2 percent as a rough guide. Repeating a phrase too often reads badly and can look like keyword stuffing. Use this tool as a proofreading check: your main topic word should appear in the title, the introduction and a few headings, surrounded by related phrases and natural language.
