Hi Chandana,
I agree with Nakul to a certain degree (sounds like a full blow SEO is not in your timeframe though). If I were you I would get an inventory of all of the pages, look at what each page is trying to rank for or at least the most important pages (each page should be optimized for 1 or 2 keywords). Use the google keyword tool to see how many people are searching for these topics. If the number is very high and competitive, try to find a keyword that is more attainable or if nobody is searching for those keywords, find one that can take its place. For instance, if you are trying to rank for tours and entertainment, it will take a LOT of effort to show up in top 100 searches since that is an extremely general and tough keyword to rank for I am assuming. Maybe you should try to rank for something like haunted house tours in massachusetts, etc. Then when you have a good sense of landing page and keywords you can dive right into on page SEO. Optimize meta tags and on-page. While you are waiting to see how those changes affect your SERPs, start link building the right way! Very important to get your domain and page authority up by getting other tour websites and blogs to link to you.
20 days is a pretty slim time-frame but like I said, the quickest solution is to really get organized, optimize on page SEO and work towards getting those high quality links. You can increase traffic by pushing your social programs too!
When Nakul says SEO audit he is saying that you should look at the current website, look at what keywords they are trying to rank for and find out exactly where they are ranking today. Take a look at the domain authority and the links that are pointing to your customers' website and try to increase that number with high quality links (links from related companies with high domain authority.) SEOmoz has tools for you to accomplish all of these things in their resources section!
Good luck Chandana!
Pat

No, I'm sure that Nakul means...
Do a thorough examination of the site. Do research for each page and make sure that each page is optimised towards the keywords you want to rank for. Also conduct an off page SEO analysis.

SEO audit means ,SEOMOZ edit ?

You need to look at what other things are needed to strengthen the pages (On-site SEO) as well as building domain authority so that pages from this site show up in the SERPS. It sounds like your problem could be either of those 2 or a combination of both.
If I were you I would look at the quality of the content, strength of the pages as well as do a complete SEO audit of your client's website to make sure your site is indeed rankable. Try a combination of both the factors and see where you get the most impact.

How to measure traffic for a keyword
Sitting in Country A I want to see how much traffic a particular keyword receives in Country B. Whats the best way to do it? Also, will the search results differ if I am analyzing the above sitting in Country A viz-a-viz Country B. In other words, will the IP of the country I am making the search from play a role in the results?

Keyword penalty?
One of our pages seems to have disappeared from Google SERPs, I did some analysis/research into this to try find out what is going on. Nothing jumps out.. - No noticeable traffic drops, especially on/after the Panda & Penguin updates. - Thorough checks on related keywords – no noticeable drops - Anchor text – brand name & natural anchor texts - 2/3 word phrases Keyword density 3-5% in content - No Google Manual Penalty with Notification in WBTools - Robot.txt checked - Checked sitemap.xml (recently updated) I expect if the page has dropped in SERPs then the traffic would drop also.. Anyone had same experiences or ideas how this page is affected?

How to rank high on Bing?
Today, I was checking Google Analytics for my website. I found too many variation in Visits between Google & Bing. I can understand that, We are not getting specific visits from Bing due to bad ranking. Then, I have done detail R & D + read few useful articles to get it done. I found such a important discussion on Bing forum which is associated to draft on page. I also checked Bing webmaster tools to know more about my website. I found that, crawling from Bing is really slow and let duane know about it via Twitter. I have read Bing rankings cheat sheet. But, I am really confuse after reading it. Because, I am following Google webmaster guidelines as well as Bing webmaster tools guidelines. So, How can I improve my performance over Bing? Is there any rock solid method for Bing like Google which may help me to achieve milestone? I have one request for Rand to write down marathon blog post to rank high on Bing....
