What is an n-gram?

An n-gram is a contiguous run of n words taken from a text. A unigram (n=1) is a single word; a bigram (n=2) is a two-word phrase such as "free tools"; a trigram (n=3) is a three-word phrase. By counting how often each n-gram appears, you can see at a glance which words and phrases a piece of writing really emphasises.

Why n-grams matter for SEO and content

Search engines read phrases, not just isolated keywords. Looking at your most frequent bigrams and trigrams tells you whether your page actually reinforces its target topic - or whether it drifts. It's also the quickest way to catch keyword stuffing and accidental repetition, to compare your copy against a competitor's, and to mine long-tail phrase ideas from research notes or transcripts.

About stop-words

Very common words ("the", "a", "and", "to", "of") dominate raw counts but carry little meaning. Leaving Ignore common stop-words checked filters them out so the ranking surfaces the phrases that actually describe your topic. Uncheck it if you need the literal, unfiltered counts.
