10 Steps to Get Targeted Website Traffic Organically

1. Chose keywords that fit in with your business purpose: Brainstorm and write down all keywords you want to rank in the search engines for.
   
   
   
2. Check the amount of competition: Find the approximate number of competing sites wanting to rank for the keyword. Type the keywords in quotes and submit to the search engines, if you are trying to rank your site for the red roses keyword, type ‘red roses’ and submit.
   
   If you get more than 50,000 results, then it is a competitive keyword, drop it from the list. If the number of results<50,000 select the keyword.
   
   Check the competiveness of the other keywords
   
   
3. Check the strength of the competition: For all the selected keywords check the google page rank of the top 3 sites on google for the search term.
   
   
   • If the page rank is more than 4, then drop the keyword as it would be difficult to rank for it.
     
     
   • If you want to get targeted traffic to your website without much effort, then chose the keywords that have lowest page rank for the top 3 competing spots.Note: You can check information about the competition using free tools like Google Toolbar or SEO Quake (for Firefox). But, if you would like in-depth information quickly, use Keyword Elite.

4. Chose target keywords: Set a target keyword for every website page, these will get targeted website traffic.
   
   
5. Use chosen keywords while creating content: Use the keyword you chose and the ‘related meaning keywords’ (latent semantic keywords) generously in each web page or post. For example, desk is a kind of a table. If you are optimising your site for the keyword table and have an opportunity to use a ‘related meaning keyword’ like ‘desk’, then use it. Aim for about 4% density in total for keywords and related meaning keywords.
   
   
6. Include keywords and related meaning keywords in important meta-tags: Include keywords and related meaning words in the title tag, the description tag and header tag. Also, ensure that the keyword is used in a heading tag at least once.
