Keyword Density Checker

Purpose: Find the most-used words in your content and their density % to avoid keyword stuffing and optimise on-page SEO.

Keyword Density Checker

The Keyword Density Checker analyses your text to show which words and phrases appear most often and their density percentage - helping you optimise without keyword stuffing.

Find your keyword balance

Paste your content and the tool counts the most frequent words and multi-word phrases and shows each one's density (its share of the total word count). This reveals whether your target keyword appears enough to signal relevance, or so much that it looks spammy.

Aim for natural

There is no magic number, but keeping a primary keyword around 1–2% and writing naturally is a safe guideline - modern search engines reward readable content and penalise obvious stuffing. Use the checker to catch accidental over-repetition and to confirm related terms appear. Pair it with the Writing Analyzer for readability.
