    Keyword density refers to the percentage of times a particular keyword or keyphrase appears on a webpage compared to the total number of words on that page. It's a metric often used in search engine optimization (SEO) to ***ess the relevance of a webpage to a particular keyword or topic.

    To calculate keyword density, follow these steps:
    1. Count the total number of words on the page: You can do this manually by counting each word, or you can use online tools or word processors that provide word count functionality.
    2. Identify the target keyword or keyphrase: Determine which specific term or phrase you want to analyze the density for.
    3. Count the number of times the keyword appears: Scan the page and count how many times the target keyword or keyphrase appears.
    4. Calculate the keyword density: Divide the number of times the keyword appears by the total word count of the page, then multiply by 100 to get the percentage.

      Keyword Density = (Number of occurrences of keyword / Total number of words) * 100

    For example, if you have a webpage with 1000 words, and the keyword "SEO" appears 20 times, the keyword density would be:

    Keyword Density = (20 / 1000) * 100 = 2%

    Keep in mind that keyword density alone is not a definitive measure of a page's quality or relevance. Search engines also consider factors like the overall content quality, user experience, backlinks, and more when ranking pages. Additionally, overly optimizing for keyword density can lead to keyword stuffing, which can harm your SEO efforts. It's important to focus on creating high-quality, relevant content for your audience rather than solely optimizing for keyword density.
