KEYWORD Stuffing!

I know that Google has ways of banning a site that incorporates too much keyword stuffing. Question is, what is the borderline for Google. I have designed this website and for the SEO guys out there please check it out and tell me if I use the word "radiators" too much.... my site is Auto Radiators.

Erm...

It's probably okay for search engines (okay as in, "won't get you penalised"). But your text is annoying for users. You've written a completely irrelevant mini-essay just in order to stuff keywords.

The funny thing is that, without good inbound links, all your keyword stuffing will be largely useless.

Re: KEYWORD Stuffing!

The word 'radiator' is 7.73 percent of your content.

You can check it out here

I would suggest not going over 5% but as MikeHopley said it really comes down to how it reads.

Re: KEYWORD Stuffing!

Well, Google says the ideal keyword density could be anywhere bewteen 2% to 8%. However, my reasoning is that the density shouldn't exceed more than 5% in the body text. You can increase the keyword density in your webpage in terms of alt tags and stuffs like that. In fact, I would say maintaining a keyword density of 5% in the body text of the webpage in natural way, is a challenge in itself. By the way, I guess there is always a way to bypass the Google kw density criterion - by using LSI method.

Re: KEYWORD Stuffing!

OK, density should be between 3 to 8% and should not exceed more than it. Keyword stuffing is not only the way to get your site top in ranking. you should go for acquiring backlinks from other site. since keyword stuffing is penalized by search engine so better you follow other approaches other than stuffing.....
