Keyword density (the number of times that the selected keyword appears on a given page) is an important factor in SEO. So, keywords shouldn’t be over used. It should be enough to appear at important places.

Repetition of keywords make your site spam. Don’t use repeted keywords again and again.

Suppose you have 100 words on your web page (not including HMTL code used for writing the web page), and you use a certain keyword for five times in the content. The keyword density on that page is got by simply dividing the total number of keywords, by the total number of words that appear on your web page. So here it is 5 divided by 100 = .05. Because keyword density is a percentage of the total word count on the page, multiply the above by 100, that is 0.05 x 100 = 5%

Never exceed standard for a keyword density. It should be between 3% and 5%.

Apply this rule to every page of your site and to set of keywords that relates to a different product or service. If you want to check the density of keywords here is the simple way:

Copy and paste the content from an individual web page into a word-processing software program like Word or Word Perfect. Go to the ‘Edit’ menu and click ‘Select All’. Now go to the ‘Tools’ menu and select ‘Word Count’. Write down the total number of words in the page. Now select the ‘Find’ function on the ‘Edit’ menu. Go to the ‘Replace’ tab and type in the keyword you want to find. ‘Replace’ that word with the same word, so you don’t change the text. When you complete the replace function, the system will provide a count of the words you replaced. That gives the number of times you have used the keyword in that page. Using the total word count for the page and the total number of keywords you can now calculate the keyword density.

This is going to be just one of the many ways you can make your website rank much higher in the search engines overall and for specific keywords or keyword phrases. A lot of people may not even really think about this type of stuff and may have not realized what damage they are doing to the SEO side of things.

An announcement by Yahoo is of taking its popular Inquisitor plug-in from Safari and offering it for Internet Explorer and Firefox. When you will type some text in to search box ,Inquisitor helps you to give suggestions ,Like in Google you have Google Suggest for suggestions.

Inquisitor is a bit different from this because it will bring up specific websites as suggestions rather then providing suggestions for actual searches.

A post on the Yahoo Search Blog says:

Building on the work by the Yahoo! Research team in the paper “Information Re-Retrieval: Repeat Queries in Yahoo! Logs,” the algorithm that generates the personalized results has been enhanced to return more targeted results.

We’ve also included a bookmark-based retrieval feature for IE. So, if you are looking for a page you bookmarked a few months ago, say an expense report guide on your local Intranet, you won’t need to fumble around your hundreds of bookmarks and folders to find that page. A simple search in Inquisitor will bring it right up.

Is this going to be the revolutionary search feature Yahoo is looking for in its ongoing struggle to compete with Google? Probably not, but it’s a handy enough feature that some users will find useful. Clearly Safari users have already enjoyed it.

Google seems to be embracing the Halloween spirit a little early this year. Its announcement regarding two new Analytics features might be interpreted as a trick, for example, since they’re in private beta without a release date. Then, for a treat, there’s not one but four new features that should arrive much sooner.

How’s advanced segmentation sound? This first of the four “enables you to isolate and analyze subsets of your traffic,” according to a post made on the Google Analytics Blog. “It is true on-the-fly segmentation of visits so that you can create powerful filters with a few mouse-clicks. . . . Then, you can apply one or more of these segments to current or historical data, and even compare segment performance side by side in reports.”

The second feature, custom reports, allows for still more user input. Motion charts will display everything in an easy-to-understand (and interesting) visual format. Finally, a new account management dashboard promises to make everything more accessible and easier to understand.

As for the stuff “scheduled for a more gradual full release,” a data export API will allow developers and random individuals to try their hands at creating new programs and applications. Integration with AdSense is self-explanatory and has topped request lists for a long time.

So go sign into Google Analytics to see exactly what the search giant put in your goody bag. And if you’re not lusting after the last two features, consider the real joke to be on Yahoo, which was trying to address some of the same issues with the upcoming Yahoo Web Analytics product.
