This requires that you get your mind around your site’s subject matter and the products you may be offering. Targeting requires your understanding of this. You must identify not only the type of traffic or visitors you desire on your site, but also the kind of traffic or visitors you don’t.

Lets talk about keyword research for your website. If you will target the wrong keywords with your SEO campaign you will lose the battle even before it begins. Nowadays you cannot expect to rank for broad match highly competitive keywords like “weight loss” or “build muscle” – the sites that are on the first page of Google (and that should be your primary goal) are several years old and have tens or even hundred of thousands backlinks, it is almost impossible to outrank them with a brand new website in a short period of time.
Alternatively, it would be easy to rank on the first place for the phrase “cool and stupid shoe widgetization” but can you imagine anyone searching for that ?

The sole purpose for your own site is for having people on the internet visit it. For people to know that your site actually exists, you must promote or advertise the site within the online community, showing what you do and most importantly what you can do for them. Promoting your website to drive more site traffic is possible by having a quantity of links to your site posted through other websites of related and/or similar subject matter and interests. Today having a top quality website is necessary for all businesses, small or large. Promoting your site to increase the traffic can make or break the venture. At the end of the day, you do not create a website for it to just to be there and have no one look at it. The purpose of having a site is for optimal viewing and value.

Part 3. The Age of Google.
Its 2004 and three major search engines remain; MSN (now Bing), Yahoo! and of course Google. The era of keyword spamming is over. These remaining three start incorporating page ranking factors into their algorithms. Content providers and webmasters have to rely on creativity to promote and generate links to achieve long term increases in search engine rankings.
By 2005 Google starts taking into account a users search history to come up with personalized search results when logged in. Then 2 years later Google starts a campaign against paid links that affect Pagerank. Another 2 years on and the company announces it will attempt to stop the effects on Pagerank from “nofollow” links.
In todays time, SEO is for the most part, a conversation with Google search. The search engine has over 70% of the market and is the place you have to be seen, if you intend driving any worthwhile volume of organic traffic. SEO Campaigns are far more labor intensive and complex now than they were a decade ago, but this is good thing from a quality perspective. Users get better, more relevant search results and providers actually have to provide value in order to get higher rankings on the serps.
