I wish to know how can I track users via what keywords they are searching and coming to my site exactly. These are non paid keywords.

There is a list of non paid keywords which is showing up but is that all ?
I wish to know all the keywords people are searching and coming to my site? How can I accomplish the same.
-
So then I wish to know how do I compete with my other websites. Lots of them are not that meaningful still they show up before us. What should we do in order to rank high than our competitors? Adwords? Better content? What exactly
-
Google Adwords will show you what keywords the visitor/clicker searched for, when the ad they clicked on showed. The point here is that you will of course pay Google per click made on your ads.
If you are ok with that, then yes, you will se a history of which ads were triggered/showed by which keywords "that the visitor typed in". Yes, if you go this route you will indeed see alot of keywords that were actually typed in.

Yes I am using Google Analytics
I just opened my analytics - Am I looking at the correct sections.
Traffic sources>Search>Organic - these are the keywords which users are searching and then coming to my site? I can see some of the keywords there.
If wish to place google adwords as a reverse engineering method for these keywords does that help?

You'll need some form of analytics on your site in order to do this. The most common is Google Analytics and form within it you can see what your best traffic sources are (facebook, twitter, google etc.) and you can see the keywords that were searched to find your page. This can help you reverse engineer your customers...are you using analytics currently?

Open Site Explorer Question
Ok, so Open Site Explorer question: Say you enter a link and filter as follows - Followed + 301, only external, this page, ungroup. Now lets say 50 links appear from the same domain, when you visit the domain one of those Go Daddy type parked domain pages appear with lots of adsense as they usually do. Link back... No where to be seen. What's the score here? Is this domain showing up because OSE is yet to update for this domain?

What are inbound links worth after Panda and Penguin, since a site ranks for the NATIONAL keyword "outdoor furniture" with ONLY 7 INBOUND LINKS!?!?
ARE INBOUND LINKS TODAY ALMOST WORTHLESS??!!? After having been the KING of SEO, down to the toilet? Today I got a great sample from a fellow SEO professional showing a site, rockymountainfurniture.com rank for "outdoor furniture" with ONLY 7 INBOUND LINKS FROM 3 DOMAINS and a domain trust of 14!!!! ON A NATIONAL, VALUABLE, HIGH QUERY VOLUME KEYWORD!! I was stunned, but is this the "NEW SEO WORLD" we live in, so we should skip spending hundreds of hours on link building? There are over 32 different types of inbound links but this is much MORE than a radical change, this is turning SEO as it was up-side-down. Any input, thoughts, ideas?

Low Traffic, All Branded Keywords
I have a client that is strong locally - and the majority of the (converting) traffic that she gets is through branded keywords. Her traffic is at about ~200 visits a month. She is ranking for some non-branded keywords, but is in a highly competitive niche - gift baskets - and isn't converting for non-branded keywords. The domain authority of the website is at 27, with the homepage authority at 39. Because she is already strong locally I don't necessarily see the need to build local citations for her. What strategies would you suggest to help increase the traffic and conversion of her website? It isn't a new website - the domain was purchased in 2002. I'm just at a loss here in terms of what we can do as an SEO company to help her build an audience - we have already been writing guest posts for publication for her, and she doesn't have the budget for high-cost directories that would really help her authority. We haven't really ventured into conversion rate optimization or multivariate testing - but I feel like what needs to happen right now is the boosting of her traffic overall. What say you all?

Google search engine questions
I'm new in SEO, so sorry if i ask already discussed questions. After some search I still have questions that i need to confirm if i am right: 1. Google calculate only first link from some domain (for example domain1.com) on some page (domain2.com/page1). So this is good to create other link on page domain2.com/page2 but no reason on domain2.com/page1. Right? 2. Plural and singular forms of search words. We can be top ranked for plural form and out of top50 for singular form. What is best practise to be top ranked for both? 3. Google images. We have changed image file names and added alt and title option. There are any other way to go on top?

Is there a cost per acuqistion figure I can quote that if I hire an agency to link build that we can guarantee a level of increased traffic from Google?
I am looking to justify to a pubilsher the cost outlay to hire an agency to do white hat link building for me as we do not have time. (the site is fully optimised but we lack the inbound links our competitors have) - is there a way I can explain in terms of numbers ie page impressions that if we build for eg 10k high quality anchor text links into our site we will get x thousand more page impressions as our rankings in the search engines will increase? Just need a justification before the budget is allocated.
