Frequently Asked Questions

What is keyword density?
Keyword density is the percentage of times a word or phrase appears in a text compared to the total word count. For example, if a 100-word article uses the word "citation" 3 times, the keyword density for "citation" is 3%. It is a key metric for SEO content optimization.
What is a good keyword density for SEO?
Most SEO experts recommend keeping primary keyword density between 1-3%. Going above 3-4% may be considered keyword stuffing by search engines and can hurt your rankings. Focus on natural writing and use related terms and synonyms rather than repeating the same keyword excessively.
What are n-grams and why do they matter?
N-grams are sequences of consecutive words: single words (unigrams), two-word phrases (bigrams), and three-word phrases (trigrams). Analyzing bigrams and trigrams helps you identify repeated phrases in your writing, which is useful for both SEO optimization and improving writing variety.
Does the analyzer exclude common words?
Yes. The analyzer filters out common stop words like "the", "is", "and", "a", etc. from the single-word analysis. These words appear frequently in all English text and are not useful for keyword density analysis. Multi-word phrases include all words for context.
