Keyword Density Checker
See how often each word or phrase appears in your content, as a percentage.
What is the Keyword Density Checker?
This tool counts how many times each word or short phrase appears in a piece of content, and shows that count as a percentage of the total word count — useful for spot-checking whether a target keyword appears often enough (or too often) in an article, or seeing what topics your content actually emphasizes based on word frequency alone.
How to use it
- Paste your content in.
- Choose whether to look at single words or short phrases (2 or 3 words), and a minimum word length to filter out short filler words.
- Click Analyze to see every word or phrase ranked by how often it appears.
An important honesty note about "keyword density"
Keyword density as a specific target percentage (like "aim for 2% density") is a largely outdated piece of SEO advice from an era when search engines relied more heavily on simple keyword counting. Modern search engines use far more sophisticated methods to understand a page's topic and relevance, and deliberately stuffing a specific percentage of keyword repetitions into content is more likely to make it read badly than to help rankings. Use this tool to sanity-check natural, readable keyword usage and spot accidental over-repetition, not to hit an arbitrary density number. Everything is analyzed locally in your browser.
