Keyword Density Checker Pro

Why use this tool?

• Single-word counts are dominated by "the" and "and" unless stop words are removed, which is why most density reports tell you nothing.
• People search in phrases. A two or three-word count says what the page is about; a single-word count rarely does.
• Where a keyword appears outweighs how often. The title, the first paragraph and a heading each do more than another repetition in the footer.
• Repetition that reads badly costs you readers regardless of what any algorithm thinks.

How to use Keyword Density Checker

1. Paste the page text, or the rendered HTML — tags are stripped and headings are picked up automatically.
2. Add the title, URL and target keyword if you have them.
3. Switch between single words, two-word and three-word phrases.
4. Read the placement rows first, then look for anything above 4% in the table.

Features

• One, two and three-word phrase frequency
• Stop-word filtering with phrases that never start or end on filler
• Target keyword placement: title, URL, first 100 words and headings
• Whole-word matching, so "car" is not counted inside "carpet"
• CSV export of the whole report

Tips

• Read any phrase above 4% aloud. If it survives that, it is fine; if it does not, it was never helping.
• Below about 300 words the percentages swing wildly. Read the counts instead.
• A target keyword missing from the title is worth more attention than any density figure on the page.
