Once upon a time there when putting lots of keywords was the guarantee.But today this type of formula don't work. You have seen that there are lots of articles and blogs which even rank on keyword on which it is not optimized for. The number of times a keyword in a blog or article is called keyword density . The keyword density must be 0.5-1%.
