What does the Keyword Density Checker do?
Keyword density is the percentage of words in a text that are a particular word or phrase. This tool lists the most frequent single words, two-word or three-word phrases, with counts and density, and checks a target keyword.
There is no “perfect” density. Modern search engines understand topics and synonyms, so the main value of this tool is spotting accidental over-repetition and confirming you have covered the topic’s key terms naturally.
How to use the Keyword Density Checker
- Paste your article or page text.
- Optionally enter the keyword or phrase you are targeting.
- Switch between single words and two- or three-word phrases.
- Review the table and download it as CSV if needed.
Examples
Over-optimised
If “cheap flights” makes up 4% of a 500-word page, the text probably reads unnaturally — rewrite with variations like “low-cost airfares”.
Common use cases
- Checking drafts for keyword stuffing
- Finding repeated words to vary
- Comparing your content with a topic outline
Features and benefits
- Private by design — your data is processed on your device and never uploaded.
- Free with no account, no watermark and no usage limits.
- Works on phones, tablets and desktops in any modern browser.
Limitations to know

- This tool does not provide search volume or ranking data.
Frequently asked questions
What is a good keyword density?
There is no ideal number. Write naturally; if a phrase exceeds about 2–3% it may read as repetitive.
Why exclude stop words?
Words like “the” and “and” are always frequent and hide the meaningful terms.
Does Google use keyword density?
Not as a simple metric. Relevance comes from meaning and context, but excessive repetition can be considered spam.
