Keyword Density Checker

Before you publish an article, it helps to see what it's really about according to the words you used. Have you mentioned your main topic enough for it to be clear, or have you repeated one phrase so often that it reads awkwardly? This free keyword density checker analyses your text and lists the most frequent single words, two-word phrases and three-word phrases, with how many times each appears and its density: the share of all words it accounts for. Common stop words like "the", "and" and "of" are filtered out by default so the meaningful terms rise to the top (you can turn the filter off), and you can set a minimum word length and minimum count. Enter a target keyword to see its exact count and density and whether it appears in your first 100 words, and each occurrence is highlighted in a preview. A word of advice: there's no magic density for SEO. Modern search engines understand topics, synonyms and intent, and stuffing a keyword to hit "2%" makes writing worse and can look spammy. Use this tool to check that your main topic is clearly present, spot unintended repetition, and find related phrases to strengthen. It isn't a target to chase. Your text is analysed in your browser.

FAQ

What is a good keyword density?

There isn’t an ideal number. Write naturally; if the main topic appears in the title, first paragraph and a few headings, you’re usually fine.

How is this different from a word counter?

A word counter measures length; this shows which words and phrases dominate your text.

Why are words like “the” missing?

Stop words are filtered by default. Untick the option to include them.

Is my text uploaded?

No. The analysis happens in your browser.
