While we’d all like to rank as high as possible for  that “golden challis” of keyword(s), it is often times not worth the price we pay. This becomes more relevant the broader the  keyword or phrase is.  The amount of online traffic searching for that keyword may be very high however this doesn’t guarantee click-thru’s or conversions for that term. If you focus your attention and budget on second tier keywords, your SEO campaign and overall internet marketing strategy has a much higher chance of being successful.

Drive more traffic to your site with the aggregate of the trailing keywords and your conversions will certainly rise. The beauty of this approach is that often times it’s easier to rank well for these terms. End result is your cost is less and your ROI is stronger.

No matter what keyword or keyword phrase you are attempting to rank well for in your SEO campaign, the golden rule is patience, persistance and content. Be sure you have content on your site that is directly related to the keyword you’re working on, keep in mind that when you halt your efforts to boost your rankings for that keyword your competition most likely is continuing and give yourself a realistic time frame within which you will begin to see results.
