In case you have just come over from my post "Find Your Keyword Density Sweet Spot" or have found my training through the search bar, I hope you will enjoy this training and find it very useful.

These are SEO conclusions I've arrived upon through reading many articles, asking lots of questions and receiving answers from people "in the know", and through results from applied experience.

Who Is This Training For?

This training is for anyone, however it is particularly for those who have tried hard to write great content using the 'ol "tried and true" simpler method as I've previously explained in my post "SEO, The Simple Way" but have struggled with getting higher rankings in the SERPs.

SEO, The Simple Way

There is more than one way to rank high in the SERPs.

Here’s another way how I do it.

So let's start the training.

Introduction: Finding Your Keyword Density Sweet Spot


This training will include the example of finding your keyword density sweet spot using an article of 2000 words, and then leveraging your keyword strategy to your best advantage.

However, you can use the formula I'm about to give you to plan and implement your SEO keyword strategy for any length article.

Keep in mind, I am not counting LSI (Latent Semantic Indexing) keywords here.

When you are ready, let’s move on to Lesson 1.

You say it works, so I am sure it does. However, I've read over and over to put keyword once in title and once in the first paragraph, then no more is needed in the post. I also use the keyword in my meta title and meta description and have also started using it for the filename of the post.

I am hesitant about adding it more times...but will try posting toward the end of the article somewhere. That is actually 6 times, so not so bad???

Tell us more, please.

Hi Fran,

Thanks you bring valuable input to this conversation.
Read my comment to Robert (Boomerang). I fully explain my reasoning.

Ultimately its your choice, but if you are finding that some of your articles are not ranking well, there is more than one way to rank. You would not be keyword stuffing if you included up to 1.5% of your content as a target keyword, and wrote your content naturally.

If you are still skeptical, try editing an article that is absolutely "tanking" and see if you can improve it. What do you have to lose?

Thanks Kaju. I will have to note this as I write. Think I might have done some keyword stuffing in the past. Always learning.

Thanks Ray:) Yeah Ray, keyword stuffing is bad!
Err on the lower side of keyword instances, but make sure you have enough. Try to use Yoast SEO is you are not sure.

Love this post, easy to follow tips. I have just reviewed my last post based on this and a post that Jay made as well. I was dissapointed that a really good post was down on page 8 on Google.

Approx 2500 words and having just reviewed it including meta title and description I only used the keyword 6 times and twice in the last 2 paragraphs!

I have edited and included it 3 more times in the first 50% of the post and also added an internal link (as recommended by Jay)

I have just resubmitted to google so lets see if we can be higher than page 7. I will let you know

Thank You Kevin, read some further details in the comments I've made to others.

SEO is often a subject fraught with some disagreement, however if you use the Yoast SEO plugin ( a great plugin), it will correct you if you are using the keyword for too few instances or too many. This alone should provide further support to this training.

There is more than one way we can rank high in the SERPs. Try a few of them, and see what works best for you.

Wishing you the Best,
Kaju
