Keyword Density Checker
A keyword density checker counts how often each word and phrase appears in your text. Paste your content and this free tool lists every word and two- or three-word phrase with its count and its share of all words, and highlights a phrase you choose. It works with English and other languages, including Bengali.
Share (%) = (Term Count ÷ Total Words) × 100Term Frequency & Density Distribution

What is a keyword density checker and when should you use it?
Keyword density is the share of all words that a word or phrase takes up in a text. It is a simple count, not a quality score, and this tool doesn't say what share is right. It is useful for spotting a phrase you repeated more than you meant to. Check your page title with the Title Tag Length Checker, and your headline tags with the Meta Tags Generator.
How do you use it?
- Paste your text.
- Choose the phrase length and options.
- Read the table, starting with the most frequent terms.
- Rewrite sentences that repeat a phrase too often for your readers.

Result interpretation & practical applications
When evaluating the output of the keyword density checker, review the parsed metrics against your specific site architecture. Outputs are formatted for direct implementation into your HTML source, web server configuration, or Google Search Console audit files.
Always inspect generated values for contextual nuance. Automated tools highlight structural patterns, but manual verification confirms that technical directives align with your overarching SEO strategy.
Technical rules and limitations
- Share is the count of a term divided by the total number of words, times 100.
- Words are found with your browser's language rules, so other scripts are counted correctly.
- Google's spam policies list keyword stuffing as a spam practice.

Common mistakes and troubleshooting
- Writing to hit a percentage instead of writing for readers.
- Forgetting that short common words dominate the counts.
- Comparing densities between texts of very different lengths.
