I think this is where this post goes. My question is, let's say your writing a community profile page, and your keywords are Eagle Bluff Homes and Eagle Bluff real estate.

Is it a good SEO practice to put those keywords in your footer since thats what the page is about?

Thanks

When writing any content to your website you only ever have to ask yourself one question - does this help my users? If the answer is no, then it's most likely not worth doing. Besides keyword density isn't all that important and hasn't been for the last few years 1% or 10% not going to make a big difference

I've always hated the term "keyword" except as a metatag targeted at old-fashioned search engines that didn't work very well.

Type your search engine query into Google and take a look at your competition.

Just write your article. Make it sound natural, something people will like to skim (and maybe read). Have brief paragraphs. Use headers in bold type so people can skim easily. Your page will have both a description and a title and you can work your targeted search queries in there, too -- but don't make your text sound stupid because you want to say CITY HOMES and CITY REAL ESTATE over and over.

Once, several few years ago, I was at the convenience store and picked up FHM magazine because there was some actress on the cover I liked. They have these little articlets all over the place for the attention-span-impaired and it was BRILLIANT writing for the web (even though it was in a magazine).

You have to automatically assume that NO ONE is going to read the entire thing (though the occasional person really will read it). People SCAN on the web. They don't read. If you're uninteresting as a scan, they use their back button rather quickly to get back to search results and click on something else. Your competition.

If you're interesting as a scan and not too spammy and/or confusing, they may stick around.

keywords should definitely appear naturally in the body of the page.

Here is what Google has to say on Keyword stuffing http://www.google.com/support/webmas...y?answer=66358

This is my most read blog, The key words are in the blog as the content. The blog is about them so they have to be there. It just works I guess.

the Title of the article helps more than having say those 10 keywords in your article.
