Optimal Keyword Density

[Ms N]

A subtitle is simply a secondary or explanatory title. For example:

Title: How to Beat Your Competition

Subtitle: 21 Highly-Effective Ways to Out-Perform Your Competitors.

That's exactly what I meant. Thanks David

Thanks for the clarification David - with so much terminology - title, title tag, subtitle, subhead, section head, it can get a little too much for my ADD. :-)

No problem, my friend.

I can see where it can get confusing. But for whatever reason, Internet Marketing terminology is second nature to me.

You're quite welcome, Ms N. When I read your post, I knew exactly what you meant.

To answer your question, I believe that a density of 1-2 % is good.
5-10% is too much in most cases just make sure you don’t repeat
the same words too many times.

I always use the following checklist:

1.Having keywords on the page.
2.Keywords in the domain name.
3.Keywords in the URL.
4.Keywords in H1, H2, H3 tags.
5.Keywords in bold, strong, italic, emphasis, and larger size.
6.Keywords in on site links and off site links. As long as your pages appear pretty natural, you won’t have much to worry about. Just write as you would normally write, make sure your keywords are in your title, URL, and perhaps the domain name, and get keyword-rich links back from relevant sites.

Once i read some where formula of keyword density that is
Total Word Count: suppose 400
keyword uses: 12
density = (12*100)/400
Many o fmy SEO friends suggest that in your first 50 words many of the keywords must be include..Also keyword density is from 1 to 3% not more than that.
