Unknown factors affecting our SEO effort
The sources are too numerous to list. You can find tons of posts on Moz though. Of note is we are handling the link cleanup on a rather large client and I decided to try out removeem. Based on weighing all we have seen so far with the software, I like it. Like with any there have been a glitch or two but their support has been very excellent. But, as I am talking with a team member she says, "Our link to our client shows up as Toxic." So, I am like "Get outta here!?" Sure enough we were. Note about software: You have to look at what they are utilizing to call something toxic or not. In this case it had more to do with the anchor text that had been used in linking to this client. So, not all that are toxic are and not all that are clean are clean. That is where you have to be somewhat nuanced in your approach. I suggest that if it looks like a paid directory (Other than dmoz or Yahoo) or if it is one that is just a perpetual listing of firms with no real content or context, I would remove it. If it is comment spam on posts, etc. Those are the types of things that stand out readily. Best,

Keyphrase / Keyword arrangement
I try and get as many keywords in one keyword as possible. "Dog's tasty chews" has "Dog's tasty chews"* and "tasty chews" "Tasty chews for dogs" has "Tasty chews for dogs", "tasty chews" and "chews for dogs". The first one only has 1 variant that is "dog specific"* to the product (chews), the second has 2. I don't put an adjective after a noun, the word "for" keeps cropping up in my keyword research as being useful. I go for singular (people aren't looking to buy your whole stock just one item from it). "Piano" 450,000 Global exact match, low competition. "Pianos" - 27,100 GEM high competition Awesome!
