Keyword density

[lizatailor23]

Keyword density is the important factor in SEO to keep the quality of content by limiting the keyword duplicacy so many times. It should be 2-3% in any web page content.

Keyword Density can vary when analyzing a page for various google. Different google may use specific stop phrases or coming methods, leading to a expression being mentioned by one engine and not mentioned by another.

Keyword density should be 3 to 5%.

Google Recommends that between 1-4% should be the keywords you want to target. This is essentially 1-4 words for every 100 you type. If a normal page is a minimum of 400 words then you are looking between 4-16 total keywords / phrases.

I have come across multiple threads on this topic and it seems like the jury is out.  However, in my opinion, I would have to side with the argument that you need to avoid repeating the keyword over and over as this is just sloppy.  Gone are the days when keywords were important in meta keywords, and this is now happening with the content.  I would advise people to stick with keywords in the URL, Title Tag, etc as these are crucial.  However, due to things like Latent Symantic Analysis, it is not necessary to repeat keywords within the body of the page.  Other techniques will gain much stronger results.  This my take on this although I can appreciate that many will probably disagree!

It would also seem like a few people on this thread have gone on a tangent and discussed Keyword research.  Yes there are free tools and yes it is very very important to research what people are searching for, volume, competition and also identify what you need to target.

Interested to hear peoples thoughts on the first point rather than keyword research.
