    Keyword proximity measures how close in the text the keywords are. It is best if they are immediately one after the other (e.g. “dog food”), with no other words between them. For instance, if you have “dog” in the first paragraph and “food” in the third paragraph, this also counts but not as much as having the phrase “dog
    food” without any other words in between. Keyword proximity is applicable for keyword phrases that consist of 2 or more words.

    Keyword proximity is the combination of the density of a keyword and the prominence. So proximity looks at the location of the keyword in the sentence and how often it's being used in that sentence and also takes into account the distance between them.

    Keyword density refers to the ratio of keywords contained within the total number of indexable words within a web page.
