I still consider keyword density as a litmus test for how I expect spiders to consider my pages. Even more important, but touching on the same concepts as keyword density, is the text-to-code ratio.

I have several pages on one site which have gone down during the past few months. They keyword density on those pages, which is not unnatural, pleased Google for many years. it still pleases Bing. But Google now seems very picky.
Based upon your experience, what is the ideal % keyword density for 2 and 3 word phrases, and should they be left out of alt tags even when proper to put them there?
While Google dominates, we do not wish to alienate BIng/Yahoo.
It is a huge mystery, and experimentation with more non-keyword-related text has so far not born any fruit.
Thank you,

Google suggest to write natural article with your Keyword in article. There is no ideal percentage but having your Keyword few times with natural occurring, will be helpful. You can use this formula
(No. of Keywords/ Total number of Keywords) * 100
(No. of Keywords/ Total number of Keywords) * 100
In 500 word article that should be 3 or 4
Keyword density is the percentage of times a keyword or keyword phrase is found in your page content amidst all the other content.
Avoid keyword stuffing. Include 1% of your targeted audience.

You have a 1000 word article.Your primary keyphrase is Trekking in Nepal. If the phrase "trekking in nepal" occurs 10 times in your 1000 words article, your keyword density is 1 percent.
