Keyword stuffing is being given more emphasis in today's articles than it really deserves. Giving high quality information in an appealing manner is going down the drain.

Optimal usage is 4-5% of main keywords depends on your content.

This is very dated advice. Google's search intelligence has gotten much better with understanding synonyms and even words that are related but not equivalent. While you should not skip your keywords entirely, write for humans, not for search engine robots. If your article is well written about its topic, the search engines will figure it out. More important, a well-written piece will attract more natural links which will be much better for your ranking in the SERPs than how many times your keyword appears on the page.

Keyword stuffing is considered to be a black hat technique of SEO, if any such webmaster seems to be repeating keywords more than desired percentage may look the whole content unnatural for the readers. This technique though seems to be worked at early days but now search engines are smart enough to find any such activity and they make sure to penalize such webmasters.

Is there a way to positively use keyword stuffing?

Now that is the right question.

Sometimes you simply forget to insert proper keywords in a page content. For example
"Somecity zoo is open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily."
But people usually search "somecity zoo hours".
So actually you need to stuff the word "hours" in your text somehow, right?

It is considered as black hat SEO. Sometimes to rank keyword high people start stuffing keywords everywhere in content , blogs etc. there is a way to use keywords in content in proper way. In 500 words content its good to use primary keyword 4 to 5 times bt if you are stuffing it to 9 - 10 times then instead of ranking high there may be chance of going down. So do ethical way of seo
