Ejemplos resueltos
Target phrase in product text
Handmade candles. Our handmade candles are poured by hand. Target phrase: candles
candles appears 2 times in 10 words, a density of 20%.
Density is the count of the phrase divided by the total words, so repeating a term too often can read as keyword stuffing.
Ignoring common words
The candle and the wick and the candle, with common words left out
candle appears 2 times and wick once, with the common words the and and not listed.
Leaving out common words such as the and and lets the useful terms stand out in the list.
Sobre Keyword Density Checker
A keyword density checker shows you which words and phrases appear most often in a piece of writing. Paste your article, page copy or product description and the checker counts every word, then lists the top single words, two-word phrases and three-word phrases with how often each one appears. Seeing these counts at a glance helps you notice when a subject is clearly coming through and when a key idea is hidden behind filler or repeated by accident. It is a simple way to review your own writing with fresh eyes.
You can also enter a target keyword or phrase to see how often it appears and what share of the text it takes up. Common words such as the, and and of can be left out, which lets the more useful terms rise to the top of each list. The guidance that appears beside the target phrase is only a rough guide. Natural, helpful writing matters far more than hitting a particular number, so use the counts to edit with care rather than to fill a page with repetition.

Preguntas frecuentes
What is keyword density?
Keyword density is the share of the words in a text that belong to a given keyword or phrase. If a text has 200 words and a phrase appears four times, the phrase takes up 4 percent of the text. Writers use the figure as a rough check on balance, so that a subject is mentioned enough to be clear without the writing becoming repetitive or hard to read.
What share of words should my target phrase take up?
There is no fixed rule. Many writers aim for a share somewhere between about 1 and 3 percent for a main phrase, but this is only a guide. A short page may naturally use a phrase more often, while a long report may use it less. The most important test is whether the writing reads naturally to a person who is reading it for the first time.
Why does the checker count phrases as well as single words?
Single words often make sense on their own, but readers and search engines both pay attention to phrases. Looking at two-word and three-word phrases shows you the combinations you use most, such as a product type with its main feature. This can reveal whether your writing is focused on the topic you intend or drifting towards something else.
What does leaving out common words do?
When the option is on, small words such as the, a, is and with are skipped in the single word and phrase lists, so the useful terms are easier to see. The totals and the share figures still count every word in the text, so the percentages stay honest. Turn the option off if you want to see every word, including the small ones.
Can I use this for any language?
The checker is designed for English text, and its list of common words is written for English. It will still count words and phrases in other languages that use the same letters, but the common word filter will not remove their small words. Check the lists by eye when you write in another language, so the results make sense for your own text.
