It's been another disappointing month for me. Despite adding more content to my site and the links jumping from 560 to 720, I've dropped in the SERPS again. Two months ago I was #7 for my keyword, last month #11, this month #13. The results still haven't settled down yet, but today the two sites above mine in the serps both had 0% keyword density! Yup -- the keyword doesn't even appear in the title.(One is a vanity page with an image on it -- not even alt tags, while the other is a redirect to said vanity page).

I love Google, but something is really wierd right now. I have more links than most of the sites above me, *way* more content than any of them (not to mention quality), and I avoid anything spammy like the plague (okay, I did put my keyword into all the internal links to my home page, but that's it -- mostly I concentrate on finding links from relevant sites and adding content).

If anyone has the faintest idea of what I can (ethically) do to help me get back onto the first page I'd be eternally grateful.
