  • If you are over 10% keyword density, you are going to get flogged by the search engine riot police.
  • 3% Density for Google, 5% for Yahoo or MSN are typically a good ratio.Remember, keyword density is important (even to your Adwords quality score), but it is just one snowflake in the SEO snowstorm.
  • Remember, Google uses slaves kidnapped by alien spacecraft to crawl the internet. If it doesn’t sounds good (i.e. make sense) there is a good chance these Borg-type indexers will notice and penalize your site. All Praise Google!
