Keyword proximity refers to the closeness between two or more keywords. In general, the closer the keywords are, the better.

Keyword Density is the percentage of occurrence of your keywords to the text in the rest of your webpage.It is important for your main keywords to have the correct keyword density to rank well in Search Engines.

Keyword Proximity: Keyword proximity refers to how close two or more keywords are to each other. You will achieve higher rankings if you place your keywords close together.

Nile Hadwards

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 proximity is all about the closeness between the two or more keyword while keyword density is all about the ratio of keywords having the total number of indexable words within a page.

In my experience the most critical places to have the right keywords are in the title, and within the first few words, and at various points throughout the content but you can't overdo it. In my experience is better to slightly overdo it than to under do it, but it is a fine line with the Panda algorithm
