What Is The Ideal Keyword Density?

Dear Friend,

What is the ideal keyword density? Some believe that 2 to 8 percent is the ideal keywords density for SEO purposes. Other think that 2 percent is optimum and anything higher than this will get the site penalized by Google. 5% keyword density is preferred for search engines such as Yahoo and MSN. However, the question is whether this percentage is really ideal.

It may serve anyone well to abide by Google’s rules when it comes to the number of keywords you should use because they are the number one search engine. So, if they say 5% is enough that is what you may want to stick with.

With major search engines online such as Google, MSN and Yahoo incorporating keyword relevance to the web content, the main focus at one time, keyword density has taken a back seat. In fact it is not give a lot of importance.

However, the sad part is that most web masters still rely on keyword density and ignore content relevance. For instance, the words ‘car’, ‘shopping’ and ‘book’ are used most commonly in online searches. In case, you had these words in your website, you have already ensured a hit. However, this system does not work any more. Earlier, you could easily use sex as a keyword wherein your site is about farming.

So, in order to lead the right people to your site, you need to use keywords they may use when looking for you. This is the way to generate the traffic that you want and what can ultimately bring turn your traffic to customers.

If you take out some time to read newsletters or articles online, you will observe that the main focus was given on keyword relevance. In case, you write an article with keyword seeding relevant to you product or idea. You are doing a lot of things at one time! You are aspiring to get higher search engine result ranking and attracting a lot of traffic towards your website. You are also satisfying your clients via providing them useful things. Lastly, you don’t lose out on potential customers.

To your success,
