Thank you so much  Bryan and Miriam !!!

Thanks Bryan for useful links...

Actually I am not worried about the internal linking. We have plain location keywords (eg. Chicago, New York, California) on footer, they are not linked. We want to remove them but at the same time do not want to lose local organic traffic these keywords are bringing in. Our fear is removing these keywords from footer may result in loss of 20% traffic.

Any alternate solution would be much appreciated.

We have a US based website, most of the traffic come from search engines mainly Google. We have comma separated location names of all popular places / U.S states where our products are popular (about 80 comma separated location names on footer of the website). Means, these 80 (comma separated) keywords appear on all 900 pages of the website.

Does these footer (comma separated) location names will prove to be comma separated keywords OR keywords stuffing on each page of website ?

The reason we need these location names is because each product page is having traffic from keywords having location names in them.

For example:

• "product1" in chicago
• "product1" new york
• "product2" IL
• "product3" california
• "product3" georgia
• and a lot more

Location based keywords are bringing in about 20% of the traffic.

Please suggest any good solution to this problem. Thanks !!!
