Hi
Seo recomands adding keywords in title, description and many (but not spamming) in content of pages and find the right density. And Incoming links with related topic and good page rank.

Now it looks like it doesn't work anymore for the keyword density within the content of webpage.

Yes I ve notice that many of top ranked website have got there keyword in title (that's how Google displays when rank) and description (but not all of them) and keywords in content aren't visible (none) are added once.
So if you put several same keywords in your content page it will see as spam and you won't be rank or list under your keyword search.

In the opposit, Yahoo rank high websites that have many same keywords within page.

Can anyone tell me if they notice the same thing ?

Keywords in the content are still taken into account while determining SERPs - however Google doesn't consider them major factor that's why pages without big density can rank well.
I don't think there's ban because of high density however too big value (compared to competitors) might be a signal for Google to apply some kind of over-optimization filter (and penalty) - but these are speculations.

Yeah keyword accounts for just 20% IN RANKING others being anchor text and links.

HI Daxesh
Could you please explain where you got the 20% idea? Is it based on some sort of research or is it a figure you just pulled out of the air?

That is a very bold statement! Like Mel, I too would like to know how you arrived at that figure?

[daxesh]

Let me first clarify that here keyword implies keywords present in the content which overall implies on page factor. There are few research papers which suggests that on page factor only accounts for 20% in final rankings.

I would like to have feedback from you all guys if I am wrong.

Can you point us to the "research papers"?

I was right, since I've delete all my keywords that were together within content page and leave keywords as seperated, my website appears (a week after) from nowhere in Google under my keywords to page number 2 in Google search result.
Also using 75% of PRIMARY keyword and 25 % of second keyword will help high ranking.


Ps : I m not an expert in SEO but that's what I ve notice when I tweak my websites.
