Sounds like I need to learn more about the benefits of monitoring traffic using my log files. I thought log files were only valuable because they showed where the traffic is already coming from.

I'm thinking that since my website is very new, if I can obtain a high ranking for a certain keyword that people are searching for, that should create a flow of traffic that I didn't have before.

I was using Overture's "Search Term Suggestion Tool", because I can query any keyword I can think of and it will show me how many people searched for that keyword last month. Figured I couldn't go wrong, and even got a few new ideas for keywords by using it.

SEO is a very complex game, and I appreciate the posts! This is good stuff, people! :)
