How Many Keywords Should I Shoot For On Each Page?
I found this fascinating quote today:
I’m sometimes asked this question, usually by someone savvy in search marketing. After all, it’s expensive to create and optimize pages for search, so you’d want to amortize that investment over as many keywords as possible right? Actually, no. The number of organic search keywords I recommend you target per page is one.Search Engine Guide Blog, May 2009
I think there is a lot of good advice on this page to help you understand how to rank high on Google with your own blog posts.

McKay,
Thanks for posting this quote. I had brushed by it not too long ago but forgot. Site Build it says 4-5 keywords, but now more than 5 and that has worked pretty well for me so far. The “spiders” sent out from search engine to crawl site DO NOT like “keyword stuffing.”
They might just pass the page by if there is any detection of trying to manipulate them:)
