One of my sites have been doing good.. just few days ago (29th June) it started dropping for no apparent reason..
what's a proper keyword density for SEO?

Impossible to determine. Don't write for the SEs, write for humans.

i notice that google had a glitch around then too, you should check your links not density, inbound and outbound, retrive steps which links you have added last...

This. It's good to get your keywords in there when relevant, but writing like a normal human being trumps a sentence with awkward word placement every time.

You can count the keyword density of done top results. Then you can do it again next week, and again next month, and spend half your time updating your pages to tweak the SEO. That'll get you a lot of tragic to that page, traffic that will bump right off the page.

Alternatively, you can write text that converts traffic into sales and that type of text will do well in the SEs over the long term. Some weeks it'll do great traffic, some less, but on average it will do well. Because Google tracks bounce rate, making pages that convert will actually increase your SE traffic too. Google reasons that if people looking for X stay on your site and even buy from you, your site must be relevant for the search term.

Have you considered the possibility that the drop might not be due to kw density but something else--ie., link patterns?

baddog · 07-04-2012, 10:15 PM

Look at the keyword density of the top 10 sites and fit somewhere in between

Yes, I already saw that and i hope so, this time it's just a bit a long tango

do you ask Google to reconsider your site?

You can get more keywords in without G. noticing if it's the same color as the background
