    my site professionalnumerology.com has just dropped to 110, so this might mean it will come to top 20 or top 30 like my experience with sudden drops are.

    I increased the density for numerology, it is still below 5 and I think Google is reacting too harsh, can you check please and give recommendations?

    Thank you

    Keyword density is an important issue and do not use keywords unnecessary as it will lok unnatural and also increase your keyword density and your site may be penalised for it from google and same thing happens to your site.

    Always remember about keyword density as-

    it should be 3-7 % for major keywords, 1-2 for minor.

    Keyword density of over 10% is suspicious and looks more like keyword stuffing, than a naturally written text.

    I know it has to be 3-7 %, but if you have 5 % density it already looks unnatural.

    I have density I think around 4 and it is alerting bots I think

    The density for the keyword 'numerology' is 3.7 that I don't think is far beyond of limit...There are some other reasons of your ranking drop..I only put one h1 tag on the web page....but you have used h1 at several places that is not good practice..might be just because of this your rank went down..:)

    I should go probably to 6.5 %, but it looks so unnatural. How do you write a 6 % density text? I mean every 15th word has to be a keyword.
