About this tool
Analyzes a block of text and shows how often each word or phrase appears, along with its density — the percentage of total words it makes up. Useful for checking whether an article naturally emphasizes its target keyword, or is at risk of "keyword stuffing" (unnaturally high repetition, which search engines penalize).
Switch between single words, 2-word phrases, and 3-word phrases to see repetition at different levels — a natural-sounding page usually has no single word above 2–3% density.
Frequently asked questions
- What's a healthy keyword density?
- There's no official target, but most modern SEO guidance suggests keeping any single keyword's density under roughly 2–3% and writing for readability first — search engines evaluate relevance using far more than raw word repetition, and unnaturally high density can look like spam.
- Why does turning on phrase length change the results so much?
- Single-word density is calculated against total word count; 2- and 3-word phrase density is calculated against the total number of possible phrases of that length (which is roughly the word count minus the phrase length plus one) — so the same repeated phrase will show a different percentage at each setting.
- Is my text uploaded anywhere?
- No — all counting and analysis happens locally in your browser.
