		<description>Hi Mani.  Interesting article.  Like everything to do with technology and the internet, everything changes.  Often more quickly than we can keep up with.  I would agree it is a combination and keywords still have their place.  However, I develop quality backlinks and quality content more than ever.</description>

		<description>For a page to be considered relevant to a specific keyword, it should have 300+ words of well-written text with a keyword density of 1-3%. If you don’t have a keyword density that is close to this range, search engines probably won’t realize that this page is relevant to your keyword (and it won’t show up in the SERPs.

		<description>I agree with Groove Factory PR. 

You have to have enough of an occurance of keywords for the search engines to be able to catagorize what your page is about.

I also agree that the search engines don&#039;t put a great deal of weight on keywords in the serp&#039;s, it does seem to be all back link oriented these days.

But, the search engine still needs to know what your page is about.</description>

		<description>Keyword density is an important thing to consider. Although back links appear to the big factor now.</description>

		<description>Where do you people come up with some of this stuff?

Only use keywords &quot;thrice&quot;, otherwise it will be considered spam?  Surely you are not suggesting a page with 1200 words need only have 2 instances of the subject of the page?

Having no main keyword on a page is like writing a thesis without a subject.  You need your page title, url, metadata, incoming links all to match the subject of the page...and what is that subject called, A KEYWORD.  So of course keywords matter.  

As for density, if you wrote an article about the New York Yankees - you would naturally use the term New York Yankees 2, 3, 5% of the time...this is without even thinking about it.  If you are writing well conceived pages, with good subjects and interesting topics...your keyword density is going to build itself.  But  to suggest that it is bad to have 3% density is simply wrong....that is just common sense and good writing, and the SEO benefit is simply an add on.

I agree that it is silly to go back and stuff well performing pages keywords, expecting some big increase in rankings.  But since using the right keywords is part of normal, everyday business writing - trying to claim density is unimportant makes no sense.</description>

		<description>hi mani

i totally agree with you keyword density is important for &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.rotapix.com/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;SEO&lt;/a&gt;. This is how we tell search engine what is our primary keyword but one thing should be kept in mind that you should not force keywords into the page and overload it with keyword that google will think it as spamy if you can put keyword in natural flow of page that is best.</description>

		<description>Hiya Mani!

Your keywords / phrases must be there, otherwise the search engines won&#039;t identify your content as being relevant to what people are searching for.

As long as they are prominent in the first 100 words of content especially, you&#039;ll be good to go.</description>
