Free Keyword Density Checker
See which 1-, 2-, and 3-word phrases dominate a live page — or paste a draft before you publish. Optional focus keyword count included. Free keyword density checker tool, no signup.
How it works
- 01
Fetch a URL or paste content
Live mode strips obvious chrome and counts visible text; paste mode scores your draft as written.
- 02
Count unigrams, bigrams, and trigrams
Common stop words are handled so the list surfaces topical phrases, not only “the” and “and”.
- 03
Optional focus keyword
Enter a target phrase to see exact-match frequency alongside the broader density table.
How to use density without stuffing
Density is a lens on focus and repetition — not a ranking guarantee.
- Confirm your primary topic appears naturally in the opening and headings
- Watch for accidental overuse of the same 2–3 word brand or product phrase
- Compare a competitor URL only as inspiration, not a percentage to copy
- Pair with meta title/description checks so snippets match the page topic
Keyword density and modern SEO
Search engines care about relevance, usefulness, and clear structure far more than hitting a fixed density number. Use this free SEO keyword density tool to catch under-covered topics or clumsy repetition, then fix titles and metas with the Meta Tag Checker and run a full SEO checker for structure and technical issues.
Frequently asked questions
- What is a keyword density checker?
- It counts how often words and short phrases appear in page text (or a pasted draft) and shows their share of total words. Use it to see topic focus — not as a magic ranking percentage.
- What is a good keyword density for SEO?
- There is no universal “perfect” density. Aim for clear primary topics and natural language. Stuffing the same phrase repeatedly can hurt readability and trust. Treat density as a diagnostic, not a score to game.
- Can I check density from a URL or pasted text?
- Yes. Fetch a live public page or paste a draft before you publish. Optionally enter a focus keyword to see how often that exact phrase appears.
- Is this keyword density tool free?
- Yes — free on TheSeoSoul with no signup. For titles, metas, headings, and technical issues on the same URL, run the full website SEO checker.
