What is a good keyword density?

There is no exact target, but a natural range for a primary keyword is roughly 0.5% to 2.5%. Much higher can read as keyword stuffing, which search engines may penalise. Write for readers first.

How is keyword density calculated?

Density is the number of times a term appears divided by the total word count, times 100. For example, a word used 5 times in a 500-word article has a density of 1%.
