Digitalquills Wordpress Plugins

The Wordpress Keyword Density plugin calculates the keyword density of the posts in your Wordpress blog. It does this by using the standard Keyword Density calculation of:

Keyword Density = ([Keyword Count]*100)/(Total Word Count]

So for example

-Total Word Count: 500
-CAR keyword uses: 12
‘CAR’ density = (12*100)/500

Keyword density for ‘CAR’ on the page is 2.4%

Once the plugin is activated the calculation of this keyword density is then shown in Wordpress in two places, on the dashboard and within the create/edit posts.

If value is above 10% then it is shown in red as this means that the keyword has been used too much and Google will see this as keyword cramming

If the value is 3-7% then it should show in Green as this is the generally accepted optimum keyword density.

If the value is between 1-2% or 8-9% then it should show as black text as this is neither in the optimum or in the keyword cramming zone.

This plugin is designed to give you an indication of the keywrod density, it will not guarantee your wordpress blog gets a higher ranking, but it is a tool that you can use to aid in your SEO.
