How to Use the SEO Content Analyzer
Enter the keyword you want to rank for and paste your content into the text area. The analyzer scores your content across four critical SEO dimensions and provides specific, actionable recommendations. Use heading markers (# for H1, ## for H2, ### for H3) to help the structure analysis detect your headings correctly.
What Is On-Page SEO?
On-page SEO refers to the optimization of content and HTML elements on individual web pages. Unlike off-page SEO (backlinks, domain authority), on-page factors are entirely within your control. The most impactful elements include keyword placement, heading structure, content length, readability, and topical coverage depth.
Keyword Density: The Modern Approach
The old approach of stuffing keywords into every paragraph is outdated and penalized. Modern SEO aims for a natural keyword density of 1–2%, which means your target keyword appears roughly once per 100–200 words. More important than exact density is natural placement: in the first 100 words, in headings, and in variations throughout the content.
Why Content Structure Matters for SEO
Search engines use headings to understand content hierarchy and topic organization. Proper H2/H3 usage helps Google identify subtopics within your page, improving your chances of ranking for related queries. Well-structured content also reduces bounce rate by making it easier for readers to scan and find what they need.
Readability and Search Rankings
Google has confirmed that readability is an indirect ranking factor. Content written at a 7th–9th grade reading level tends to perform best in search results because it reaches the widest audience. Long sentences, complex vocabulary, and wall-of-text paragraphs increase bounce rate, which signals to Google that users aren’t finding what they need.
