Is This "Keyword Stuffing"???

I have a feeling it is. I'm not sure what lead company it is.

Click on the link or a crazed broker from Oregon will move into your basement.

Great West health insurance - healthinsuranceplace.com

I clicked on the link and the "crazed broker from Oregon" is standing at my door with all of his stuff and his seven children all under age five.

Should I have double clicked on it?

NO!!! If you would have double clicked, another crazed broker from Utah would have shown up with his 27 children!

At any rate, Ed, it's better than having some crazed insurance broker from Ohio move into my basement!

Keyword density, while not as important a metric as it once was, is still useful. I like to shoot for 4% density on my targeted phrases. Over 6-7% it starts reading funny, and over 10% it starts to count as stuffing.

Stats for the linked page (individual words):
insurance 30 11.32% health 30 11.32%

Stats for the linked page (two-word phrases):
health insurance 24 9.06% great west 13 4.91% west health 13 4.91%

It's slightly stuffed for "insurance" and "health," and getting close for "health insurance."

And 6 wives . . .

Paid his rent on time. Only got noisy on the weekends when Mistress Sado showed up with her whips. The camel smell was a bit much but it was offset (somewhat) by the smell of falafel cooking.

In some ways, I kinda miss that big guy.

So is this post about people showing up at your door, or about keyword stuffing? lol.

I checked and it's not keyword stuffing in my opinion because it's all in a paragraph and although he uses the same keywords over and over again, it's probably not picking up as spam. The bolding of his keywords that he's doing is probably helping him.

I think the main reason why it wouldn't be picked up as spam is because his keyword density isn't that bad because he has so much text, the % balances out. It's bad when the ONLY text on the page is keywords because then your balance between keywords vs. other text is going to be very bad.
