Multiple Pages are coming when I search for one keyword

Is it negative from SEO point of view if 3 pages are ranking for one keyword

@EugeneVOct 24.2016 — Depends on which SERP pages they are listed. If they are on different pages - that is not that bad and you can have more visits from that.

From the other hand now is Google update running and that might happen due to that.

So wait a bit and check if (and how) that will be sorted.

The purpose of keywords is to list pages that rank for that word. That is what search engines do.

@Bhavna_MalhiNov 03.2016 — According to my knowledge, it is not a negative point of view because google crawler only show those lists of pages that actually exists belong to the particular keyword.

@clarencebrownNov 07.2016 — The only reason that could be a problem is if the entire post content for your "multiple" posts are exactly the same. So in this case you are leaving it up to Google to decide which page/post to provide in search results, which may not match the one you actually wanted and while demoting your standings for all of the posts.

But if each page is mostly unique in content, tone and language, this will not have any affect on your pages. But I strongly suggest managing a sitemap with Google, Bing, etc and I also suggest adding links amongst your pages for related content to further boost usability while also assisting search bots in accurately indexing your site.
