One tool of a platform where AI generates websites, images, video, text and documents — under one subscription.

Keyword density is the quick indicator of two ills: stuffing, which search engines demote, and the opposite — when the main keyword barely appears. The analyzer filters prepositions and conjunctions and surfaces the top-15 meaningful words with counts and shares. Everything runs in the browser — the text never leaves the page, so unpublished drafts are safe. Volume and reading time come from the character counter; make the page slug with the slug generator. Texts that never need rescuing from stuffing are written by the Zerocoder Studio.

What density counts as normal

The working guideline is 1–3% for the main keyword: with 500 meaningful words that's 5–15 uses. Above 4–5% the text reads as spam to humans and algorithms alike. But density is an indicator, not a goal: modern engines grade meaning and topical completeness, not repeat counts. Cover the query fully and the density settles itself.

Removing stuffing without killing the text

Swap some repeats for pronouns and synonyms, rebuild sentences that carry the keyword twice, and drop it from most subheadings — two or three are enough. The best check: read the text aloud. Any phrase you wouldn't say to a real person (“buy website cheap price best”) is a rewrite candidate.

Competitor analysis by density

Paste a top-ranking page's text — you'll see which words carry its topic and in what proportion. That's a semantics hint: words in a competitor's top-15 that are missing from yours are candidates to add. Don't copy proportions; close the topics the competitor covered and you didn't.

FAQ

What density is normal?

A guideline of 1–3% for the main keyword. Above 4–5% risks reading as stuffing.

What are stop words?

Prepositions, conjunctions, pronouns — noise excluded so meaningful words surface.

Are word forms merged?

Exact forms are counted separately: “site” and “sites” are different rows. Related forms in the top are a signal too.

How much text can I paste?

Tens of thousands of words — the analysis is instant.

Is my text uploaded?

No, everything is counted in the browser — drafts stay safe.

Is density a ranking factor?

Not directly, for years. But stuffing is penalised and completeness rewarded — density helps you spot both.

Do I need an account?

No: the analysis is free and unlimited.

What do I do with the result?

Main keyword at 1–3%, competitor top-15 gaps — covered, bureaucratic filler — rewritten.

What else does Zerocoder do?

AI writes articles that self-check for stuffing; there are courses and jobs.
