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.

Keyword Rich Domain
We purchased a keyword rich domain name to use with an existing website. What is the best way to use this domain? Below are some thoughts, I welcome any input. Use this domain as an add-on to the main domain, but only have it load one page off the main domain? Would that cause duplicate content issues? Create a single static page of content for the domain (separate from main domain) Redirect domain to page on master domain, would we loose any benefits of the keyword rich domain? Thank you!

Keyword rank and redirecting
I'm creating a new amazon affiliate site. I've researched other successful sites. I've noticed that they are ranking for 1000s of keywords, but many of these long tail keywords are redirected back to a main page. I can see how this can reduce the overall total amount of content pages on the site. How are you able to rank for the keyword in the first place if the the page is redirected?

International Version of Website
Our website is AluminumEyewear.com and we're considering launching a specific version for Australia, naturally I want to avoid any dupe content issues but the content would largely remain the same. I have read through this post and wondered if the options given here are still relevant? I'm currently leaning towards using a sub-domain, i.e. au.aluminumeyewear.com or should I go for aluminumeyewear.com.au? Will there be dupe content issues if I do that? Confused and hoping for help!

Keyphrase / Keyword arrangement
Hi all, What are your thoughts on the arrangement of keyphrases / words? For example, does it make a difference if the words are arranged in the following way: "Keyword 1 Keyword 2" or "Keyword 2 Keyword 1" Both ways make a phrases which is favourable in the search engines. Can I stick with 1 way or should I be going with both arrangements. Hope that is clear 🙂

Meta Keywords: Should we use them or not?
I am working through our site and see that meta keywords are being used heavily and unnecessarily. Each of our info pages will have 2 or 3 keyword phrases built into them. Should we just duplicate the keyword phrases into the meta keyword field, should put in additional keywords beyond or not use it at all? Thoughts and opinions appreciated
