Keyword density for a website

I don't worry one bit about keyword density. It used to be a factor years ago, but now what I do is write for readers. I make sure that my keyword is in my title and also is in my copy somewhere. It could be 4 times...it could be once...it could be 10 times...there is no formula.

I had a great English professor whose response to the question "How many words should be in our reports?" was always "As many words as it takes for you to say what you need to say." I'd advocate these things for your landing pages:
- Forget about how many words are on the page
- Target keywords and synonyms of those words
- Forget about density
- Write something that contains value for a visitor
The days of calculating density of keywords on a page and having that help your SEO are long gone and it might even hurt you. Just write a great page using words that correctly describe your product, service or main "reason to be." I believe the rest should happen on its own.

About 4 times should be fine. Try not to focus on stuffing the keyword or inserting it in unnatural ways. Just write the content naturally and it should work the keywords in.
Just write relevant information that is tailored towards the user.

How to rank for a keyword
Hi guys, I'm looking to rank a new blog for a search term which we currently already rank #1 for. I want to create a blog which provides a better solution to a searchers query and knock our current #1 page for this new one. Is there a way to do this simply without losing the real-estate the currently ranked #1 page has already accumulated? Or is just a matter of working on this new blog to find it's own way to the top? Thanks in advance, James

Website Not Performing after switch to HTTPS
We recently switched our client's website to HTTPS but after the move, we've experienced a huge decrease in rankings (off the map), and traffic. Our metas for the homepage are not being picked up by Google, although it was appearing correctly before the switch. We've implemented all redirects, resubmitted URL to Google, and updated GSC. GSC is also reporting errors in our XML stating there are no URLs to crawl. Has anyone had any issues similar? What do you all recommend? Help greatly appreciated
