How many keywords I should add in a blog?

 

Hello friends! I have come up with another blog on Keyword. As you know that keyword plays an important role in digital marketing. They help us rank our website on Google’s SERP. Isn’t it? The keyword makes it easier for people to find your site or blog on Google. Many people use free keyword research tools to get the best keywords for their websites. But, hold on! Let me tell you here is that the right quantity of keywords will help you achieve these goals. Whether the goal is:

• To rank higher on Google ✓
• Target relevant audience, or ✓
• Enhance SEO score, etc. ✓

Proper integration of keywords is important in a blog to achieve associated goals. So, friends, in today’s blog, I will talk about the number of keywords you should add.

Let’s get started now.

You must understand ‘keyword density’ to add a relevant amount of keywords below 👇

What is keyword density, you ask? Simply put, keyword density is the number of keywords that appear in the entire content/article/blog. As per experts, the ideal keyword quantity should 1-3%, which means the keyword should appear at least 2-3 times per 100 words. This basically helps search engine what your page is all about.

Is there any formula to look at keyword density? Yes, friends, the formula you can follow here is – take a total number of keywords on your page and divide it by a total number of words of content. After getting the ratio, turn it into a percentage (%) by multiplying (x) result by 100.

But friends, how many times you would use this formula and keep checking keyword density? Don’t you think it’s time-consuming? Friends, I myself don’t use this formula. So, what do I do? Curious to know? Keep reading below.

How will you check keyword density if you’re using blogger?

Friends, I use the blogger platform and let me tell you blogger doesn’t tell you the number of keywords added. So, how do I check? Friends, I use SEMrush and Ahrefs tools for my blog. These two tools are very helpful in letting you know the number of keywords you have added to the blog post. Not only do these tools offer keyword research, but also help you write SEO-friendly content and recommend your keywords. So, you can use them for both the purpose i.e. checking keyword density, producing SEO friendly and search engine friendly content.

What if you’re using the WordPress platform? You would be having this question as well. Guys, one thing I like about WordPress is that you can add the Yoast SEO plugin in it and check the SEO score. Yes, friends, the Yoast SEO plugin is very helpful. Not only does it tell you about keyword quantity, but also helps you make your overall content SEO-friendly.

What if I’m using another platform apart from blogger and WordPress?

Now this question would be hovering in your mind, right. Friends, the keyword strategy formula will work for any content and for any platform. The good thing about WordPress is that you get the Yoast SEO plugin. And for other platforms, you can use Ahrefs and SEMrush tool. These tools are amazing and work best for the overall content marketing strategy. So, you can use them without giving a second thought. I also use the SEMrush tool to produce SEO-friendly and search engine-friendly content. And through this tool only I get to know the density of keywords added in content.

I would only say that don’t look for other options because Ahrefs and SEMrush are indeed the best tools for bloggers, digital marketers, and content writers. If you haven’t used these tools, give them a shot. You’ll surely love them.

Let’s sum it all up ⭐
