So I was reading this thread and I was wondering how many keywords you can actually cram into one post? Some keywords are easier but some have ranked like 30 keywords im wondering should I put them all into one post?
How many keywords you can cram into one post?

roughly one keyword per 200 words of copy is considered a good benchmark

One main keyword and 1 - 3 long keywords is a good idea but if you’re writing a long ass article add more long tails

It depends on person to person. Most of the time, I prefer to cover one main major keyword and its long terms in one article like health-related topics. Sometimes medium searches multiple keywords in one article like amazon review articles.

The answer to your question will depend on the keyword and the nature of the content. Is the keyword long and clunky? Are you primarily writing for an audience or to promote a product or service?
Basically, the more your focus is on the audience, the less you will want to stuff your content with keywords. If you are primarily putting out content to draw people in via keywords, you will want more keywords. If the keywords are clunky, you will understandably want less of them. If the content reads as if a robot wrote it, it’s not good.

+1 for this.
Try it to be natural as much as possible. You are writing it for humans/visitors/readers, not only for robots.

There is not a specific number of keywords for which a perticular post could rank. Sometimes perticular post could rank for multiple set of keywords.
But would recommend to target a post for a perticular main keyword for which you want to optimize your post or webpage for. And that post will automatically rank for its variations and LSI Keywords as well.
One keyword in per 200-250 words is ideal. And try to use it's long tail and LSI or its variations. Try to keep the keyword density below or at minimum of 1% or less.
Try to use less of main keywords, instead use more of its LSI, long tail keywords and keyword variations.
Always try to place your keywords into the content naturally, in a flow.

Do not force multiple keywords, just write natural content.

You’re free to optimize for 3, 4, or even 10 target keywords on a single page.
Make sure your primary or secondary keywords appear in these areas:
Meta Description
Page and Post Title
Headline
Subheaders
Body Text
Image File Name and Alt Text

There's no straight forward answer here.
Let's take keyword "domain broker":
If you have 1k-3k article, you'll be targeting about 10 keywords
For example:
domain broker - main keyword
domain selling company
domain selling broker
domain seller
broker to sell domain
company to sell domain
sell domain platform
I'm sure you can come up with synonyms so it's really about how many synonyms can be used.
I doubt you'd be writing seperate articles for "domain selling broker", "domain selling platform" and "domain selling company" keywords.
