2. Keyword Density: As above, too few or too many keywords can keep your pages from being displayed in search results. Keyword density should be between 3% - 5%. Also, make sure your keyword or phrase appears in the first sentence of the body text.

3. Font Size: When choosing a font size, it is recommended that you use a standard text size. Using the small fonts can be considered spam by search engines.
