I am thinking about making an Archer Paladin build for Pathfinder and was wondering about the Divine Bond ability the Paladin gets at level 5.
Normally the Keen weapon property for example states:
Only piercing or slashing melee weapons can be keen
Emphasis mine.
However there is nothing in the ability text of Divine Bond that states that it has to be an appropriate weapon type for the chosen weapon property.
Would it be possible for a Paladin to add Keen to his bow using his Divine Bond ability?

Rules as written, no.
However, there has been at least one case of a published Keen Composite Longbow, on The Dragon's Demand module.
You do have other options to obtain increased threat for ranged weapons, however. Such as the Keen Edge spell, which can be cast on ammo.
