Understanding Keyword Density
Keyword density is the percentage of times a keyword or phrase appears on a web page compared to the total number of words on that page. In the context of SEO, it's a measure used to determine whether a web page is relevant to a specific keyword or topic.
While there is no single "ideal" keyword density, most SEO experts recommend staying between 1% and 3% for your primary keywords. Going above this can lead to "keyword stuffing," which search engines like Google may penalize.
