One of our very successful SEO friends asked me to share this…
Where a keyword appears in the text can be as important as how often you use it.
Try to place over 50% of your keyword usage in the first couple paragraphs of the body text without stuffing (55% to 75% is typically ideal). This can be tricky, but well worth the effort.
If, for example, you used "New Hampshire real estate" as a keyword phrase seven times throughout the page, try to break it down like this:
4 mentions in the first two paragraphs
2 mentions in the next paragraph or two
1 mention in a paragraph toward the bottom of the page
Natural Text Flow
Please keep in mind that it’s becoming more and more important to try to keep your text in a natural language sort of flow.
Many search engines are on the look out for blocky sentences and phrases that are not combined in a natural order.
