How it works

## How it works

**Density = times the keyword appears x words in the keyword, divided by total words.** Matching ignores case and punctuation.

FAQ

## About this calculator

**What keyword density should I aim for?**

There is no target that search engines publish. Write naturally and for the reader, and use the check to spot overuse.

**Is my text saved?**

No. Counting happens in your browser and your text is never sent to us.

**Does it count variations?**

No. It matches the exact words you enter, so "notaries" will not count for "notary".

**Is keyword stuffing a problem?**

Search guidelines discourage repeating a word unnaturally just to rank. If a phrase appears in nearly every sentence, rewrite for a human reader.

**Where should the main keyword appear?**

Naturally in the title, the main heading and the first paragraph, and in the body wherever it fits, without forcing it.

**Is anything saved?**

No. The math runs in your browser and nothing you enter is sent to us.
