Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Thanks so much. And I will try all of this. One mention is that I have nofollow tags on my category pages, (such as, http://splattermusic.com/category/reviews/albums/), because I read that allowing the search engines to crawl these pages would dilute my results. But since both of you have recommended this Report Card tool, I will look into it now and study it heavily!!

Thanks you very much for the reply and great info. I'm still a little perplexed though... so by having my individual posts rank well, this will ultimately [over time] lead to my homepage showing in top results of the search engine rankings? Or is the primary goal of all SEO just for individual posts to rank well?

Maybe that's the question I am asking here: should I focus my SEO efforts on individual posts or on the homepage?

Prob the most n00b question of all, but once I understand this I will be able to research on my own from here:

If a search engine produces results by the keywords from individual website posts/pages, then how are the keywords I choose for my homepage so important if the general homepage meta-tag keywords are essentially ignored by the search engines? Should I repeat my primary keywords on EVERY post, in addition to the ones that relate to that individual post or am I misunderstanding something fundamental?

My new site is http://splatterMUSIC.com and I want to be at the top of the results for anyone wanting to watch music vlogs, album reviews, music lessons, funny music-related videos, new non-major label music videos, and all kinds of other concert footage, etc.
