Common SEO Mistakes
Focusing Content on Keyword Density Google’s Hummingbird update focused more on understanding the
content of search query and, ultimately, how your page matches that query.
The density of your keywords within your content is not as important as it used to be.– Search algorithms are smarter.
– It could actually de-value your content!
– It’s a dangerous strategy to “stuff” keywords today.
