The keyword density of the article is emphasized by many article directories. Popular article directories will use all sort of tools to monitor the keyword density of the article. Some article directories don’t have restriction regarding the keyword density of the article. Despite that, it is important that you monitor the keyword density because it will affect your ranking in the search engine.
The article should not be stuffed with keywords. If the article is stuffed with keywords, it won’t rank well on the search engine. The search engine only requires you to optimize the article with 2 – 3% of keyword density. If the article contains too many keywords, it will be filtered out from the search result. The keyword density is based on the word count of the article. The higher the word count of the article, the higher the keyword density. The lower the word count of the article, the lower the keyword density of the article. For example a 300 word article should not use more than 9 keywords. A 500 word article can contain up to 15 keywords. Every article directory has a different guideline regarding the keyword density. To find out how many keywords are allowed in the article, you should reference the article submission guidelines.
Using a lot of keywords in the article also cause the reader to have a hard time reading the article. Nobody likes to read article that is filled with keywords. The readers will automatically realize that you are putting a lot of emphasize on the keywords. Even though you are not using promotional terms in the article, putting a lot of keywords make it look promotional. Many article directories have a strict rule regarding the keyword density. If your article contains more keyword that the minimum requirement, your article will be rejected by the editor. The editor will manually check the article and make sure that it don’t have too many keywords. Some article directories are more advanced and have an automatic keyword density checker.
When you paste the article in the article text box, the keyword density checker tool will work in the background. The invisible keyword density checker tool will check the keyword density of the article. If your article contain many repetitions of the same keyword, it will let you know. It will let you know how many percentage of the each of the keyword so that you can make the necessary correction. You have to reduce the keyword repetitions before you are allowed to submit the article.
You should calculate the number of keywords in the article before submitting to the directories. In this way, you will not have to keep making correction to the keyword density.
Many people claim that they get a lot of targeted traffic from the article directories. If you want to drive a lot of targeted traffic to your site, you have to consistently submit articles to the article directories. You can submit up to 10 article per day. After you have submitted 10 articles, you must wait for some time for the articles to get approved. After the articles are approved, you can submit more articles.
