Keyword density is a foundational aspect of on-page SEO. It can help attract search engines and boost a page’s visibility on search engine results pages (SERPs) when used correctly. When ignored, it can keep a page from ranking or even result in a search penalty, removing it from SERPs altogether.
It is calculated this way:
Number of times the focus keyword appears / Number of words on a webpage= Keyword density or IDM
An excessively high keyword density can create a poor experience for readers and be considered a bad practice by Google, resulting in a bad position in SERPs.
