#4: Read over the content. 

 When you read over the content, try to read it like a visitor would. Do the keywords you’ve tried to incorporate in the text distract you from the meaning of the content? Do the keywords seem blatant?  If they do, rewrite the content to make it flow more naturally.    

#5: Count the number of keywords and plain words.  

If you have a 500 word piece of content, you’ll want to see around 5-15 primary keywords sprinkled throughout the content—a keyword density of at least 1%, but ideally 3%. Keyword density is the number of keywords divided by the total number of words. A keyword density of 1% in a 500 word piece of content would be 5 keywords, while a keyword density of 3% in a 500 word piece of content would be 15 keywords. Strive for 3%.   

#6: If you don’t have enough keyword density. 

Or have too much,rewrite the content Rewrite your content as necessary to have enough keyworddensity.  

Why is keyword “stuffing” bad for my site? 

 It is bad for your site simply because search engine spiders have been programmed to skip over sites with excessive keywords. These would be sites with keyword densities of at least 10%. Sites like these are known as spam sites—sites created specifically to earn high rankings in a search engine due to high keyword usage. Before, spam sites would be heavily rankedin a search engine, but not anymore. Spiders are smarter than ever, able to detect spam sites from a mile away. 

That’s why keyword stuffing is a bad thing for your site—it will actually keep spiders from visiting. Make sure you do not have a keyword density of much more than 5%. Even 5% is considered too high.  

 Keeping the above things in mind will help you to build a site that search engine spiders love.
