What is Optimal Keyword Density for a general tutorial post? SEO Yoast plugin suggests that keyword density should be less than 2.5%. But I found many webmasters suggest that keyword density may be over 2.5% as it doesn't effect much. Well I am confused here. Suggest me!!
Well it depends on the fact that how you are using your keywords. If they are relevant to the content body then you can exceed the 2.5% limit otherwise not. I usually try to keep my keyword density within 2%.
1-3% of keyword density is Better for Ranking.
Keyword density has nothing to do with rankings and its all about how well the content satisfy its target users.
1-4% of keyword density is Better for Ranking.
Great. Thanks for share such information.
It should between 2% to 3%

I suggest you that if keyword ranking is less in percentage is better like:-1.3%.
