Keyword Density Checker
Paste an article, page draft, or any block of text — see the most frequently used single words and phrases, with their count and percentage share, to spot repetition or confirm your target keyword shows up naturally.
How to use
Paste your content and click Analyze. The tool strips common filler words ("the", "and", "is" and similar) from the single-word ranking so what surfaces is meaningful, then separately shows the most common 2-word and 3-word phrases, which often reveal your actual target keyword more clearly than single words do.
Keyword density isn't a ranking factor Google directly rewards — writing naturally beats hitting a specific percentage — but this tool is genuinely useful for a different reason: spotting accidental overuse of a word or phrase that makes writing feel repetitive, or confirming your intended topic phrase actually appears enough to be clearly the subject of the page.
FAQ
What's a healthy keyword density percentage?
There's no verified optimal number — Google doesn't rank pages by keyword percentage, and chasing a specific target (like the sometimes-cited "1–2%") can produce awkward, stuffed-sounding writing. Use this tool to catch unnatural repetition, not to hit an arbitrary number.
Why does the tool show phrases as well as single words?
A single-word count often surfaces generic words your topic naturally requires (like "tool" on a tools page), while 2-word and 3-word phrases more often reveal the actual specific phrase you're targeting or repeating, since real target keywords are rarely a single generic word.
Are stop words like 'the' and 'and' included in the count?
They're excluded from the single-word ranking specifically because they'd dominate every result regardless of topic. Phrases are only excluded if every word in them is a stop word — a phrase like "and the" is dropped, but "of the market" (which includes a meaningful word) is kept.
