Check keyword occurrences and classify results correctly
Check a page for your target keyword
Enter the published URL, a main keyword and, if necessary, other terms separated by commas. The check retrieves this page and shows the examined areas in a table. Start with Title and H1: Are they describing the same task as the content? Then read the references in the text. The CSV export is suitable as a working basis for an editorial revision.
What a hit means – and what not
The search compares strings without regard to capitalization. A hit can also be within a longer word. Synonyms and word forms are not semantically recognized: “Shoes in red” does not fulfill the same string search as “red shoes”. A missing hit is therefore a check question, not proof of a bad text.
Using the keyword score as orientation
The score arises from fixed rules for occurrence and frequency. It does not measure search intentions, professional quality or Google positions. A keyword may be missing if another expression is more understandable. Conversely, frequent repetition does not automatically make a page more helpful. Check eye-catching areas in context, instead of just maximizing the score.
What contents are recorded
The delivered HTML is evaluated without executing JavaScript. Navigation, footers and other text areas may be included in the text count; reloaded content may be missing. In the event of unexpected results, check what content the server delivers without logging on. The check examines a URL and does not compare it with competing search results.
Assessing a missing exact keyword in context
Practical example · for illustration
Starting position
Check a URL on the topic of “red shoes” with exactly this focus phrase.
Classify the findings
The exact word sequence may be missing, although “shoes in red” meaningfully describes the content.
Specific amendment
Check title, H1 and introduction for comprehensibility and topical reference. Complete the phrase only if it fits naturally.
Control and border
Check again and read the text. Frequency and exact occurrence do not measure any search intention and do not provide an ideal keyword density.
Questions about use and boundaries
Is the Keyword Check a Ranking Check?
No. It examines keyword occurrences in the HTML of your URL. For the current Google position and the ranking landing page, use the separate ranking check.
Which Keyword Density Is Optimal?
There is no ideal value that can be determined here. Frequency is a note for text checking, not a default. Comprehensibility, technical completeness and appropriate formulations take precedence.
Does the tool recognize synonyms and search intentions?
No. It searches for the strings entered. Whether a text answers the question of the searchers, you have to judge by the content and the search results.
How do I find a suitable keyword first?
Use keyword research for topic ideas and keyword ideas with search volume for demand checking. The keyword check assumes that you have already selected a URL and a target term.
