What Is The Ideal Keyword Density?

March 16th, 2010 by Jason Glover Leave a reply »

Dear Friend,

What keyword density will give you the most results? Is it 2 to 8 percent for the perfect number? Some people feel that 2 % is all that Google will allow these days. 5% keyword density may be preferred by other search engines. You need to use the amount that is beneficial to you.

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.

However, due to the overuse of keywords, sites such as Google may not look upon them as well as they once did. This may make the use of keywords not nearly as effective as they used to be. In order to get the most use from your keywords that you possibly can, you need to be certain that there are relevant to you articles or whatever you are putting them in. You must have keywords that are a part of what you are offering to be effective.

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.

Due to the misuse of keywords, it has resulted in a lot of keyword abuse. Many people who are looking for a specific product are being misled to the wrong website, which is a waste of their time. Even if you think you are doing better by getting more people to your site, it is a waste of their time and yours if they aren’t going to buy what you have for sale

If a person takes the time to read what you have say, there is a good chance they want something you may have to offer. This means the keywords you use in the article are helpful to lead them to your site. This is the best way to work on SEO efforts and also allow them to be as effective as they can be. Anything else is just a waste of your time.

To your success,

Jason
