Proper use and optimization of those keyword choices, how you build out your website (w/ those keywords) and your overall site strategies also come into play as well and shouldn't be overlooked. If you don't have a strategy or focus with how your keywords are used, then you face a long, long uphill battle getting good enough rankings that will drive traffic. In regards to the conversion aspect, this should be the #1 piece of any marketing program and not ignored during the SEO strategies. You can drive thousands of visitors to a site, but if it's not converting very well, the owner of the site is going to think the SEO was a waste of money. Keep up the blogging & give Adam my best.
