Word Density Checker

See which words dominate your text.

Analyze a block of text and see which words appear most often, with counts and percentages (common stop words excluded).

How it works

Your text is split into words, common stop words (like 'the', 'and', 'of') are removed, and the remaining words are counted and shown as a share of the total.

When it helps

Helps writers spot overused words and gives SEO writers a quick look at which topics a text emphasizes.

How to read the results

The list shows each word that remains after common filler words are removed, how many times it appears, and what share of all counted words it represents. The top few words should reflect what your text is actually about. If an unrelated word ranks highly, your writing may be drifting off topic.

If one word shows up far more than the rest, try varying it with synonyms or restructuring sentences. Repetition that's useful in a technical guide can feel heavy in an article or story.

Density and SEO today

Years ago some sites repeated a keyword over and over to rank higher. Search engines now treat that as keyword stuffing and may rank such pages lower. Instead, they look at whether a page covers a topic thoroughly and answers the reader's question.

Use this tool as a sanity check: make sure your main topic is clearly present, related terms appear naturally, and no single word is overused.

Frequently asked questions

Is there an ideal keyword density?

No. Modern search engines reward natural, helpful writing, not a specific percentage.

Which languages does it support?

Word counting works for any language, but the stop-word list is English.

Why are words like 'the' missing?

Very common English stop words are excluded because they would always top the list without telling you anything about the topic.
