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.outdoorsrank.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.outdoorsrank.com/search/landing-pages/
It looks to be very accurate in my opinion,
Hope this helps,

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

How do I do keyword research when search volume is unknown
Hi Mozzers! I do a lot of work in niche areas, and one issue I often confront in keyword research is unknown search volume. That is, I'll be doing keyword research in Keyword Explorer or Gooogle Search Console, and for the most relevant keywords, I find either very low search volumes, null search volumes, or "Data not available." How do I make good keyword planning decisions when I can't find good data for search volume? Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Andy

Focus Keyword
Hi everyone! I am pretty new to SEO so all the help would be great. Does every webpage on our website need a focus keyword for example like the about us page. We have webpages for every location in the UK - Would it be helpful if the location webpages had a focus keyword also? Just to note that I am using Yoast on Wordpress. Many thanks,

Keyword research tools
So I went to a panel a while back that said Wordtracker is basically useless. I'm not using it as an end-all, be-all, but more for insights and context. Do you agree with that statement? The hosting company provides a keyword research tool, so I wasn't sure how seriously to take it. Have you guys been using Bing for the search data previously provided by Google's Keyword Research Tool? Do you find that to be a viable resource? Thanks.

Include Location in Keywords?
I understand Google's local search automatically searches keywords with the location you are searching from. For example if I'm searching from Calgary and query "best shoe repair", Google knows I'm searching from Calgary and presents Calgary based results. I'm using Google's new Keyword Planner tool which allows for city based search results, meaning I don't have to include "Calgary" in the keywords I submit. The question I have is should I be attaching "Calgary" to my keywords for on-page optimization, and why or why not? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Keywords + Country?
Hey guys, Let's say that I'm doing on-site SEO for a website that sells football shirts. This website targets 5 different countries. We only have a .com domain and no other country specific domains will be added at this point. When I choose the keywords, do I opt for product name + country or only product name? football shirts france or football shirts? Some info: Countries have been added in the title of the pages. Countries appear in the footer. Thank You.

Keyword Research (dash or no dash)
I have a client that has been optimizing for "print and apply" for the past 5 months. Yesterday they decided it was more grammatically correct to use "print-and-apply." There question to me was "is this going to effect our SEO?" So... I checked the difficulty using the keyword analysis tool, both keywords had the same broad/exact adwords traffic as well as difficulty percentage. When reviewing the top 25 listings for each keyword it looks like the same sites rank in the SERPs between 1-8 and then after that it is completely different. So, is there a better keyword to target? Are these two keywords different enough to truly have separate search results?

The top 8 results didn't even target "print-and-apply" in there content or title tags... Thanks for the input/discussion - Kyle0
