Free Keyword Counter
Tracking five keywords across a draft in your head doesn't scale. NToolHub's free Keyword Counter scans your text for a whole list of keywords at once — counts and densities side by side in one table. SEO editors use it to balance primary and secondary terms across long-form content.
How to Use the Keyword Counter
- List the keywords you care about, separated by commas.
- Paste your text and click Count Keywords.
- Compare counts and densities side by side in the results table.
- Rebalance any term that dominates — or barely appears.
Features
Enter unlimited comma-separated keywords (phrases supported), paste your text, and get a clean table of per-keyword counts and density percentages against total word count — all computed instantly in your browser.
Benefits & Use Cases
Side-by-side counts reveal imbalance instantly: the primary term appearing 40 times while a key secondary appears twice. Balanced coverage across your keyword set is what comprehensive, rank-worthy content looks like.
Tips
Map one primary and 3–5 secondary keywords per article before writing, check counts at the draft stage (not after publishing), and don't force a keyword that won't fit naturally — skip it instead.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many keywords should I track?
One primary plus 3–5 closely related secondary terms per page is a solid framework. More than that usually means the content needs splitting.
What's the difference from the density checker?
The Keyword Counter handles multiple keywords at once in a comparison table; the Keyword Density Checker does a deep single-keyword analysis with stuffing verdicts.
Are matches case-sensitive?
No — matching is case-insensitive with word boundaries, so 'SEO' and 'seo' count together but 'seos' wouldn't false-match.
Can I count phrases?
Yes. Comma-separate your list and include multi-word phrases — each is matched as an exact phrase unit.
