What is a good keyword density?

There isn't one. Google doesn't use keyword density as a ranking factor, and no percentage makes a page rank. Use the counts to spot accidental repetition and to check a page is really about its topic, not to hit a target.

Can too many keywords hurt a page?

Yes. Repeating a phrase unnaturally is keyword stuffing, which breaks Google's spam policies and reads badly. If a phrase stands out at the top of the list, rewrite with synonyms and natural language.

Is anything I paste uploaded?

No. Every tool runs in your browser, so the text, HTML, URLs and images you use are processed on your device and are not sent to our server or stored. Reloading or closing the page clears them.

Yes. Every tool is free with no sign-up and no limits on use. Clearly labeled ads keep it that way.

Will these tools improve my rankings?

They help you get the details right: tags that are complete and valid, previews that read well, files crawlers can parse. No tool can guarantee rankings; those depend on your content, your site and how search engines evaluate them.

Pour-over coffee is one of the simplest ways to brew a clean, sweet cup at home. You need a brewer, a paper filter, a kettle and freshly ground coffee.

Start with a ratio of about 1:16: 20 grams of coffee for 320 grams of water. Grind the beans medium-fine, about as coarse as sea salt. If the coffee tastes sour, grind finer; if it tastes bitter, grind coarser.

Heat the water to around 94 °C. Rinse the paper filter with hot water to remove any papery taste and to warm the brewer. Discard the rinse water.

Add the coffee and pour just enough water to wet the grounds. Wait 30 seconds while the coffee blooms and releases gas. Then pour the rest of the water slowly in small circles, keeping the level steady.

The whole brew should take about three minutes. If it drains much faster, the grind is too coarse. If it stalls, the grind is too fine or the filter is clogged. The brew was tasted by our team at every step, and each recipe was carefully tested before it was published.

Pour-over coffee rewards small changes. Adjust one thing at a time, write down what you changed, and you will find the cup you like best within a week of experiments with your favorite pour-over coffee beans.

Keyword Density Checker: what to know

The keyword density checker counts how often each word and each two- and three-word phrase appears in your text, with the count and the share of all words. Paste plain text or a page's HTML; for HTML it reads the visible text and ignores tags, scripts and styles. Common stop words such as the and of are filtered out by default so the list shows the words that carry meaning.

Keyword density was a popular target in early SEO, when search engines leaned heavily on word counts. It isn't a ranking factor to aim for today: Google understands synonyms, related terms and the topic of a page as a whole, and no percentage makes a page rank. Repeating a phrase to reach a target is keyword stuffing, which breaks Google's spam policies and makes text worse to read.

The counts are still useful as a mirror. They show what a page is really about, which can differ from what you intended, and they make accidental repetition easy to see. If a phrase dominates the list, read those sentences aloud and rewrite the ones that sound forced.

Tips for the best result

Look at the two- and three-word phrases; they show topics better than single words.
Use synonyms and related terms naturally instead of repeating one phrase.
Paste only the main content to keep navigation and footer text out of the counts.
