Keyword Density Quick Notes

Akp51v (AK Patil) recommends the following keyword density thumb rules.

Short Keywords

(E.g., dental clinic)

= 1 to 2 times per 100 words

= 1 to 2 %

(E.g., dental clinic services)

= 1 to 2 per 200 words

= 0.5 to 1%

(E.g., Benefits of Regular Dental Checkups)

= 1 to 2 per 300 words

= 0.3 to 0.7 %

Longer the keyword,

Lesser the density;

To avoid stuffing,

And unnatural placement.

Keyword Length	Example	Frequency per Unit Words	Keyword Density
Short Keywords	dental clinic	1 to 2 times per 100 words	1 to 2 %
Medium Keywords	dental clinic services	1 to 2 times per 200 words	0.5 to 1%
Longtail	Benefits of Regular Dental Checkups	1 to 2 times per 300 words	0.3 to 0.7 %
Why Does Akp51v Reccommend This Approach to Keyword Density? Answer: Longer keywords require lesser density which also prevents keyword-stuffing risks. Another fact is that more short or medium keywords will not feel unnatural or forced during the reading experience.
