Keyword Density Checker

How to use

1. Paste your article or page copy.
2. Choose single words or two or three word phrases, the stop words to leave out, and the minimum count.
3. Type a keyword or phrase if you want its own count and share.
4. Read the table of most used terms, then edit the text if a repeat sounds unnatural.

What it checks and how it works

Density is the number of times a word or phrase appears divided by the total number of words, times 100. The total counts every word, stop words included, so the percentages stay comparable when you change settings. Words come from Unicode word segmentation (UAX #29). Stop words come from the stopword package for English and Arabic. The tool can fold Arabic spelling variants, such as alef forms, yaa and alef maqsura, taa marbuta and haa, and tashkeel, so that variants count as one word.

There is no ideal density to aim for. Google's spam policy names repeating the same words or phrases so often that the text sounds unnatural as keyword stuffing, and it gives no target percentage. The tool therefore reports counts and shares and never gives a grade or a score.

Limits: it counts surface forms. It does not stem or lemmatize, so an Arabic word with an attached prefix or suffix is counted as a different term from the bare word.
