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?

Am I better off with ten links from one site or one link from ten sites?

Total Exact Match Anchor Text Percentage or a Few High Quality Exact Match Backlinks, which is better?
Hello, I was wondering if anyone could help me. I am trying to rank a web page for a competitive regional search term. Upon inspecting all the competitors’ backlinks they appear to using an overly high exact match anchor text to rank on the first page for this keyword. Somewhere in the region of 15 – 55% exact match anchor text. So the question is what does big G provide a heavier weighting for, A.) The total percentage of exact match anchor text for all your backlinks, until it reaches the point of over optimization. A higher percentage up to about 60% will help you rank in the top 3. Meaning I should change a 1,000+ backlinks on multiple domains to the exact match anchor text. B.) Or just a few backlinks with the exact match anchor text but from really high quality domains with a ‘Majestic SEO’ Trust and Citation Flow above 40. Any help would be appreciated, exact match anchor text is meant not to work but it still does.

DA of External Link Sites
Curious as to how you separate a "good" link from a "bad" one. I go through Open Site Explorer and see a variety of sites linking to our page. Some have good Domain/Page Authority and others do not. When looking for links, where do you determine whether a link from a specific page will help/hurt you in terms of their DA/PA? Translated another way: How much DA/PA does a site/page need to have before you decide it will pass good link juice to yours via a link?

Maintaining or improving keyword ranking
I started a second website recently and it is doing very well. I am on the first page for a competitive keyword - spot 5 according to Moz. It is actually a category page that is ranking so well which is a surprise to me as I have read many times that I should deindex category pages due to duplicate content! My questions: 1. How do I get backlinks to a CATEGORY page?! I have been able to get backlinks to certain posts because my website is a deal blog and other deal blogs give me credit for popular deals by linking to my post. 2. How can I maintain this high ranking? Of course I want in spot 3 but this website isn't even 2 months old so I know I should be patient. At this point, I just want to stay on the first page. What is the best way to do that? I am about to fill out the SEO stuff for the category page which I haven't done yet.Thanks!

Backlinks from PR sites not showing in Open Site Explorer
Hi, Over the last year I have used a range of different PR sites to post news articles that link back to various pages on my site. However, barely any show up as link backs on Open Site Explorer, neither follow nor nofollow links. Can anyone explain why this is and whether or not the dofollow links count towards SEO if they are not picked up by OSE?

Domain position on site:domain.com search
Hi, After the last week Google algotithm update, my web site index appears on 4th position when I search for site:www.domain.com If I make a simple search for domain or domain.com it ranks on first position. Is this a sign of a penalty ? What would be the cause ? Thanks
