What keyword density is, and why it is worth checking

Keyword density is the share of a text made up by a particular word or phrase: density = (times the phrase appears ÷ total words) × 100. It matters because it sits exactly on the line between writing clearly about a topic and stuffing a page until it reads badly and risks an over-optimisation penalty. This checker does the counting properly: paste your text, or point it at a web page, and it counts every 1-word, 2-word and 3-word phrase, showing how many times each appears and what percentage of the whole it makes up. Visual indicators flag the phrases that repeat too often, so problems show up at a glance — and the terms you underuse stand out just as clearly, which is often the more useful discovery.

How to use it

  1. Paste your content into the checker, or enter the page you want to analyse.
  2. Read the phrase tables: counts and density percentages for 1, 2 and 3-word phrases.
  3. Edit anything that is flagged as overused, re-check, and export the report to CSV if you need a record or a client report.

Worked examples

An 800-word blog post about email marketing contains the phrase “email marketing” 12 times: 12 ÷ 800 × 100 = 1.5% density — squarely in the natural range for a main topic phrase. The single word “email”, though, appears 26 times, a density of 3.25%, and the checker flags it; swapping some mentions for “newsletter”, “campaign” and “your list” brings the wording back to how a person would actually write. The 3-word table earns its keep in the second example: a product page repeats “buy running shoes” in the title, two headings and four times in 300 words of copy. No single word looks excessive, but the phrase table shows the exact wording Google sees — and the page gets edited before it goes live, not after it underperforms.

There is no magic percentage that guarantees rankings, and this page will not invent one: natural writing for a main keyword usually lands around 1–2%. The checker’s job is to keep your phrasing natural and clearly on-topic. Writers run it over blog posts before publishing, SEO specialists over landing pages, and marketers over product descriptions. Your text stays in your browser — free, with no sign-up.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a good keyword density?

There is no official ideal. For a main keyword, natural writing usually lands around 1–2%; much higher often reads as stuffing. Use the figure as a sense check, not a target to chase.

Does the checker analyse phrases or only single words?

Both. It counts 1-word, 2-word and 3-word phrases, which matters because stuffing usually hides in repeated phrases rather than single words.

Can I check a page that is already online?

Yes. As well as pasting text, you can analyse a web page directly, which is handy for reviewing your own published pages or a competitor’s.

Can I keep the results?

Yes. Export the analysis to CSV for audits, client reports or before-and-after comparisons when you edit a page.
