There’s actually a lot more to SEO than using
targeted keywords that match people's
search engine queries. Although keywords
are the starting point for your blog’s SEO
strategy, they can take your blog only so far.
You also need to focus on other SEO
techniques to truly grow your blog’s search
engine traffic. - Susan Gunelius, Blogging for Dummies
