Does your page really talk about the topic you want to rank for? Keyword density answers that question by measuring how often each word and phrase appears in your content. Paste a URL — the text is extracted from the page automatically — or paste raw text, and get the top 20 one-word, two-word and three-word phrases with their counts and percentages. Stopwords (the, a, of, and…) are filtered out so only meaningful vocabulary remains. In seconds you can confirm your main keyword stands out naturally, spot accidental repetition, and steer clear of the over-optimization Google penalizes. Free, unlimited and no account needed.
How does it work?
- Paste a page address — or switch to text mode and paste your content.
- Click “Analyze” to run the count.
- Browse the three rankings: 1-word, 2-word and 3-word phrases.
- Confirm your target keywords lead naturally, without excessive repetition.
Frequently asked questions
What is the ideal keyword density?
There is no magic percentage. In practice, a main keyword at 1–2% already stands out clearly; past 4–5% the text turns repetitive and risks reading as over-optimization. Write for your readers first, then verify the intended topic dominates.
Does Google penalize keyword stuffing?
Yes. Artificially repeating a phrase is explicitly listed among penalized practices. Modern algorithms understand synonyms and related terms — a rich vocabulary around your topic beats the same phrase hammered over and over.
Why analyze 2-word and 3-word phrases?
Because people rarely search single words: “web agency geneva” or “merge pdf online” are typical queries. The 2- and 3-word rankings reveal whether those full phrases — the most qualified ones — actually appear in your content.
Which words are excluded from the count?
Stopwords in the page’s language: articles, prepositions, pronouns (the, a, of, and, or…). They often make up half a text while carrying no meaning; filtering them out is what makes the statistics genuinely useful.
