Keyword Density Checker

Mastering Keyword Density & Prominence with RankSure.io

Understand your content like Google does — and improve it in minutes.

Why Keyword Density Still Matters in 2025

Let’s get one thing out of the way: keyword stuffing is outdated — but keyword strategy isn’t. The intelligence of search engines has increased. They care about where a keyword appears and how well it blends in with the rest of your content, not just how often you use it. For this reason, RankSure.io emphasizes both keyword prominence and density. You can optimize without going overboard by using our free Keyword Density Checker, which provides you with a comprehensive overview of how well your target keywords are incorporated throughout your page, including headings, meta tags, and alt text.

Analyze, Optimize, Rank for Sure with RankSure.io!

What Is Actually Verified by the Keyword Density Tool? When you run your page through the tool, you get the following:

1. Keyword Report:
2. Keyword Density & Count: The percentage of the total content that each keyword appears in and how frequently it occurs.
3. Keyword Prominence Table – Compact summary of where each keyword appears:
   1. T – Title Tag
   2. Desc – Meta Description
   3. Hd – Headings
   4. Cont – Body Content
   5. Link – Anchor Text
   6. Alt – Image ALT Attributes
   7. Domain – Domain Name
   8. Slug – URL Path
4. Page Stats:
   1. Total Word Count (with and without code)
   2. Text to HTML Ratio
   3. Status Code Check (for broken pages)
   4. Sitemap Status (Is the page included in your sitemap?)
   5. Canonical URL Check (Does your canonical tag point correctly?)
5. Heading List: Breakdown of all your H1–H6 tags, showing if your structure makes sense for SEO.

A Real Example: How to use the free Keyword Density Report

Let’s say we run this URL through the tool:
URL to scan: https://designdevelopseo.co.uk/wordpress-seo-experts-london
And analyze the following keywords: seo uk, seo london, design develop, seo services
Here’s what the report tells us:

Keyword	Prominence	Count	Density
seo uk	–	0	0%
seo london	T, Desc, Cont, Link, Alt	4	0.5%
design develop	T, Desc, Cont, Alt	4	0.5%
seo services	Hd, Cont	2	0.25%

Quick takeaways:

1. “seo uk” is missing completely — if this keyword matters, consider adding it to the content or headings.
2. “seo london” appears in strong spots — including Title and Meta — great for local SEO.
3. “seo services” shows up in a heading — but only twice overall. Could use more visibility.

This is the kind of compact insight that normally takes 30 minutes to gather manually. With RankSure, it’s instant — and accurate.

🎯 Why Keyword Prominence Beats Repetition

Most SEO tools just count how often you use a keyword. But Google looks for signals, not just numbers.

For example:
• A keyword in your title tag or H1 carries more weight than five uses buried in the body.
• Alt attributes that contain keywords aid in accessibility and image SEO.
• Including key terms in anchor text increases internal linking's relevance.

Because it tells you not only whether your keyword is used but also where it is used, the Prominence Table is one of the tool's most crucial features.

Expert Advice: How to Maximize Without Going Overboard

1. Don't force exact keywords; use them naturally.
2. For each keyword, aim for a density of 0.5% to 1.5%. Too low? Google might overlook it. Too much? Penalties are a possibility.
3. Add keywords to the first paragraph, the title, the H1, the meta description, and at least one subheading.
4. Use variations: If "SEO services" is your primary keyword, add "search engine optimization," "SEO strategy," and so on.
5. Remember to include images; alt text is often overlooked but has significant benefits for user experience and SEO.
