I have done the following on a website because I thought that it would help my visitors but now I think that it might be over optimization.

I would really appreciate your opinions regarding if the following could be seen as over optimization.

(1) On several pages of the site, I have done the following a couple of times on the page:

<h2>Tips to Build Widgets</h2>

Paragraph all in bold describing the types of tips that are provided. The paragraph contains keyword phrases and related keyword phrases that the page and the site are targeting.

Bullet point list of the tips. Each bullet point is a couple of sentences and the first sentence is in bold.

So it is h2, paragraph in bold, bullet points several times on a page on several pages.

Could the bold paragraphs be seen as over optimization?

(2) On pages with images, the paragraphs that describe the images (the paragraphs are generally before the images) are in bold and they contain keyword phrases and related keyword phrases that the page and site are trying to rank for. On some of the pages, the first paragraph in the body text is among the ones in bold.

Could the bold paragraphs be seen as over optimization?

(3) On a couple of pages, I have the following:

<h2><strong>Text here</strong></h2>

and keyword phrases or related keyword phrases that the page is trying to rank for are among the text in the h2 tag.

Could the addition of the strong tag inside the h2 tag be seen as over optimization?

I would appreciate your thoughts on whether you think that I am over optimizing in the 3 examples above. It would help me a lot.
