Inktomi Keyword Density

[toolman]

What keyword density does Ink like best?

[stcrim]

Toolman,

I've never really built my pages using a percentage/density basis. To this day they really like heavy keyword saturation (that is my paid pages) Sometimes it can be difficult tp have content and the correct keyword sat.

Toolman,

Ink density is very heavy compared to a engine such as google .... It seems especially on any 2 or 3 word phrases it is especially high or low because they are filtering for the single word positions and the only way to do this is make the rythm heavier or lighter ...

[minnapple]

Even two word keyword searches are tough.

I have moved to three word keywords, up to four in each page.

I can't quite get the ink rankings with less than three keyword (most likey poor SEO on my part):).

There are sites in the top 5 that have "coming soon sites" etc . . with little density if any.

example:
Keyword - Shades - Competitive but some non-targeted material.
Keyword - Green Shades - Lots of non-targeted material.
Keywords - Long Green Shades - targeted material

Of course a Single Keyword gets 100x
Two Keywords gets 10x
Three Kewords gets 1x

These are positiontech payed for.
I have only been playing with this for the last 3 weeks so it is to early to draw and final conclusions.

In my research/experience, I've also found that Inktomi likes a higher kw density than other engines, but also that they like shorter pages than other engines.

Less content may make it easier to achieve the higher density.

[skiguide]

Actually, on high SEO-guru authority (Marshall Simmonds) - Inktomi would like pages up to 500 words.

[toolman]

Densities should be measured as a per word basis rather than a phrase basis?

[circuitjump]

I thought it was per phrase or word, whichever your going for.

Check this place out it's pretty cool

>Inktomi would like pages up to 500 words

hehehe, not in my experience. Think short and punchy.

[msgraph]

I totally agree with the shorter content high-density.

I've never had much success with pages that have a high-amount of words, large paragraphs, etc.

Inktomi still loves those 8-10 keyword phrases-only pages with just a few other words spread about. That is really short with a lot of punch!

[littleman]

Yes, very short and punchy and with a very spammy KW%.

[toolman]

Thanks. I'm catching on using PT...it's great to see the results so quickly.

>short and punchy

INK used to be a real sucker for a picture and about 20 words. The rougher the design, the better, or so it seemed (ummm.... I had 'a friend' with a lot of crudely assembled pages). Lots of H2 and keywords as links. Density was probably hitting 30%. Doesn't sound like it's changed all that much.

[stcrim]

Yep - What littleman and NFFC said. Can rank in INK's top ten at the drop of a hat, but does me very little good. Directory and GOTO smoke me on main KWs.

Circuitjump that is a nice site(keydensity). I am having trouble getting my sites into ink, what is the solution?

Welcome to WMW and the INK forum. Unfortunately the answer to Ink is cash or a credit card not yet over the limit. The new inktomi no longer provides non-biased search results. For an anual fee per page they will be happy to include you in their database.

I see the signs of slurp in my logs.

Isn't "Mozilla/3.0 (Slurp/si; [e-mail]; [inktomi.com...] inktomi's spider?

[SubmissoR]

Does Link Pop play any part in Inktomi/partner rankings?
It seems like it ranks mostly based on the individual page, not themeing or off the page criteria....

[stcrim]

SubmissoR,

Welcome to WMW and the ink forum. None of my ink pages have link pop and all rank well as pure ink -

[littleman]

Roleli, yes it is.
