The short answer to this is – no. There is no one-size-fits-all keyword density,
no optimal percentage. I do not subscribe to the idea that there are a certain
percentage of keywords per 1000 words of text to get a page to number 1 in
Google. Search engines are not that easy although the key to success in
many fields is simple seo.
I write natural page copy where possible always focused on the keyterms – I
never calculate density in order to identify the best % – there are way too
many other things to work on. Hey, I have looked, a long time ago. If it looks
natural, it’s ok with me. Normally I will try and get related terms in the page,
and if I have 5 paragraphs, I might have the keyword in 4 or 5 of those as long
as it doesn’t look like I stuffed them in there.
I think optimal keyword density is a bit of a myth these days, although there
are many who disagree.
