There is a myth that search engine friendly pages need a certain keyword density to rank highly, that in order for a page to be well received by the Search Engines it needs to repeat a Keyphrase X times per every 10 words or you don’t stand a chance. We don’t believe this to be true.
If you want to rank highly in the Search Engines, content should be written with users in mind, it should describe your business’ activities and the activities based around the keyword you are targeting. Including your Keyphrase a natural number of times in the copy is the best thing to do.
It sounds too simple, but writing content for the user should mean you naturally mention the phrase/s you are promoting, do this and your on the right tracks!
