Which keywords are sending traffic to my site?

I want to know Which keywords are sending traffic to my site? What type of strategies behind this ?
-
You can only see a small percentage of the keywords driving traffic, due to (not provided) and Google not sending data on the vast majority of keywords.

If you also want to find out "Not Provided" Keywords then you can check with SEOMOZ http://analytics.moz.com/search/landing-pages/

Also worth a quick mention,
The new landing page tool in Moz Analytics,
If you build up your campaign keyword list a little with the keywork information you are seeing in Google webmaster (Also worth taking a look at Bing webmaster tools, they seem to be much more generous with information than Google)
Then take a look at this feature, http://analytics.moz.com/search/landing-pages/
It looks to be very accurate in my opinion,
Hope this helps,
James

Hi,
You can look at your Google Webmaster Tools account to know what are the search queries that your visitors used to land on your website from Google. You can also look at your web analytics data (like Google Analytics, SiteCatalyst etc) to know this data but as Google started encrypting the search, you won't be able to see the complete picture of your keyword data that is drving traffic from Google. If you don't have an access to webmaster tools account or web analytics, you can try using tools like SEMrush to have a fair idea about the keywords that are driving organic traffic to a website.
Coming to the strategies, useful, relevant, updated content stands at the top followed by backlinks coming from other topical niche sites, good blogs and forums, authority websites like .gov, .edu, .org so on and so forth. If you can come up with top notch content, half the battle is won as good content is a natural link magnet. Those were my two cents my friend. Good Luck and please post back in case you have any other queries in this regard.
Best regards,
Devanur Rafi

Authority site targeting multiple similar keywords
Hi! I found a niche I'd really like to work on. I was initially targeting a longtail keyword but there are so many available for this niche I decided to just make an authority site instead. My plan is to have multiple pages with each page targeting a separate long tail keyword in the niche. There's probably going to be over a 100. Let's say for example it's an organic gardening niche. The website will be setup for the entire niche and the page titles will be structured as such: Best Organic Gardening Soils Best Organic Gardening Tools Best Organic Gardening Seeds I'd prefer it to be setup this way so I can target traffic for the term with and without "best". I'm wondering if this sounds a bit spammy or is acceptable? Any other ideas as far as targeting similar longtail keywords in the same niche on a single site? Thanks so much!

Keywords and Rank Checker Tool
Two questions about checking the rank of keywords. The easiest way to say this is by example. I have a keyword that SEOMOZ ranks on google in the 32nd position but when I look for that keyword in Google it's nowhere to be found (it's buried deep in the results pages somewhere). Where does SEOMOZ get its keyword results from? How do I non-localize my browser so I can see "global" keyword results? Is there such a thing? thanks in advance.

To Meta Keyword or Not To Meta Keyword, That Is The Question
I can't seem to get a reliable answer on this one. It seems to be split down the middle as far as who agrees and who doesn't, of course some of that content is outdated. So, for today, should I be using the meta keywords tag or not? Thanks, Steven

What do broad match keywords represent?
Exact match is perfectly easy for me to get my head around - broad match, not so much! Take the phrase, "removing blueberry stains." Is the broad match data for this that I'm seeing in the Google keyword tool for searches that involve any of these particular words, in any phrase, in any order - just so long as they're all there? Any help with this concept would be much appreciated.

Keyword Strategy for an E-Commerce Site
I've seen this touched on in other posts but have read conflicting answers and am hoping to get some clarification. What should my keyword strategy be for an e-commerce site in an industry that has moderate to high competition for it's short-tail keyword phrases? Should I try to optimize my homepage for the highly competitive, short-tail keywords, while going after the long-tail, and less competitive (but less traffic, too) on my product pages? What's a good rule of thumb as far as the number of keyword phrases to target per product? Thank you
