If you knit too tightly, it will be difficult to get the stitches off the needle.
If you are asking how to get a close knit finished product with no holes, I suggest using the needle size suggested on the wrapper for that particular yarn.
If you want it even tighter, just use a smaller needle but not so small as to make it difficult to work. If you use a needle too small for the yarn, your finished work will be stiffer. If the pattern you are making needs a stiffer material, then that is fine. If you need more drape, then you don't want to go too small.

Knit a sample first. Cast on and knit with twenty stitches to start, and knit until it's a few inches long. Measure your knitting. Let's say it's four inches wide.
