Keyword Density Strategy To Improve Your Rank

Hi Folks

Competition is hard between websites, and their posts/pages, and what makes one more successful than another is the position a site gets on search engines? The higher the ranking the bigger the traffic volume to the site. To achieve a higher position websites use the strategy of SEO and content is written in such a way that its rich in keywords.

What does Rich In Keywords Actually Mean?

Its not as simple as using words over and over again. You need to know which keywords are relevant to your website and pages. You can use a keyword density checker. A checker will search through your web content and highlight words used in higher density. The results should give you a good idea what you need to do to enable you to perfect your pages and provide what search engines spiders want.

A Keyword Density Checker can be used to crawl individual URLs, analyze word density, and remove common stop words. You can even add a Keyword Checker to your website to fulfill this vital task for your site On-Page SEO.

It is all about knowing how to gather your audience or customers and the keyword density checker can help you do this without you making mistakes.

The basic rule of thumb is to know what keywords people are using as search terms.

Keywords must be relevant to your line of business.

The trick is to strike a balance with not too many and not too few. Too many can get your site banned for keyword stuffing, and too little will mean a lower ranking. So, stick to your market plan but make your content meaningful and relevant, find out the most important words that will be used by people to find what your site has to offer. I've said it before but will do so again - What would your search term be for the product you're promoting?

To Finish

4 Points That Will Keep You Ontrack;

  1. Match keyword tag with content. Ensure that the keyword meta tag has around 900 characters or 25 words.

  2. Keep your keyword density between 1.5-3% for best results. Avoid using the same word more than once in a sentence. Use a keyword validator to find out what your keyword density is.

  3. Try and maximize use above the fold. Many search engines only crawl about 25-50% of post content.

  4. Spell your keywords with variations and include plurals.

The golden rules of SEO are:

  • Keyword Density
  • Keyword Frequency
  • Keyword Prominence
  • Keyword Proximity.

There you have it folks. Now go and run a check on your own sites keyword density. You might be surprised.

Have a great day and be successful.

I LOVE this. Thanks Robert. I'll put this in my toolbox. I am always looking for help with my keywords. I have been working on and tweaking the heck out of my site. This is very helpful.

Hello Michelle and thank you for commenting.

Have a good one over there in Florida.
Robert

hehe.... Don't I wish I was in Florida... Freezing my butt off in the icy tundra of Minnesota!!

So you moved away from the sun.
It pretty cold here in Scotland as well.
Minus 12/13 some nights.
Wrap up and stay inside.
Robert

No, I'm moving toward the sun. As of Feb 1 we are moving to Arkansas to take ownership of our new business, tallpinesinn.com
It will be a bit warmer than Minnesota!! YAY :)

I'm almost positive you said you lived in Florida.
No matter you will get a nice tan some day lol.
Take care and will catch you another time.
I'm off home now to make myself some eats.
Robert

Thank you Robert. It appears on assessment that individual insight initiative and input is the game changer from the naïve version!

Indeed it is Mike.
What worked before will certainly not cut the mustard now.
Hope your results were favourable.
Have a good one.

Hi Damian and thank you for reading my blog.
Hope this blog has given you a clearer understanding on how to use keywords to their best effect.
Have a good one.
Robert

It's a start but I have so much more to learn and get good at.

Knowledge will come from experience the same as any other job.
And of course reading my blogs LOL.
Robert

A brilliant post, Robert. One daft question...isn't keyword density the same as keyword frequency?

James

Hello James and thank you for reading the blog and for your question.

From a mathematical viewpoint, the original concept of keyword density refers to the frequency of appearance of a keyword in a dissertation.

Hope this reply will suffice coz I don't know any other way to explain it LOL.
Enjoy your Wednesday.
Robert

Hi, Robert. I think it will suffice, thank you :)

No probs and both explanations are right enough in their own way.
Robert

Cheers, Robert :)

Very interesting and informative.

I like the formula
I will use it, I'm about the rework my old posts, so why not use the formula and I'll see what happens. Thanks for sharing.

Hi Sylvia and thank you for reading my blog.
Remember you can have an Checker Tool on your site and test your posts right after you publish and then you will know if you have to edit.
Have a great day.
Robert

I gotta go do this! *geeky laugh*. Thanks Robert :)

Its not 'Geeky' Kim, its down to common sense.
Hope you went away with a tip or two you can now put into practice.
Thank you for taking the time to read my blog and have a great Wednesday.
Robert

I look for any excuse to be a little geeky. Or atleast think I am.

And yes, I’ve already learned great tips from you like secondary keywords. I knew that was happening naturally but I now know more about controlling that. Look forward to what this checking reveals :) Thanks again Robert. Totally enjoy your reads!

No probs and always happy to give my tips and advice.
Remember you can put a Checker on your site.
Now I'm off to get stuff done uptown.
Take care.
Robert
