We had some websites that were on the first page of the results. After reading and watching tons of official google videos and docs, we learned that we were doing too much keyword stuffing in our titles. We then decided to have more specific titles, no keyword stuffing, but just using one or two keywords very specific for each page. A moth later those websites were no longer on the first page. We lost 30% of page visits.

Also, we completely removed the meta keywords tags, but I don't believe that would make any difference.

I hope someone can give me any hints.
Thanks in advance.

I can tell you that it's probably not related to the fixing titles. If you did the right thing then it's fixed. There are many other factors involved. Can we see the sites please and we may be able to help.

could be that you were hit with a panda penalty?

have you checked the time of the drop against known updates?

Least that way you'd know the cause.
