However, here's what I get.
My site will get roughly 190,000 visitors this month.
Visitors to my site (as of yesterday) found it using 29,393 different search phrases.
The top search phrase was "Acme widgets." That phrase brought in 1523 visitors. Broken out into individual keywords, "Acme" brought in 13,497 visitors, and "widgets" brought in 9717 visitors. I have other brands of widgets on my site, so that 9717 may apply to other brands.
As you can see, I'm a firm believer in diversification of search terms.
I have a site that gets more traffic from the same phrase as another I own, yet the other one is positioned higher. Why? because the title and description are more attractive to people.
Without factoring the quality of these two elements it would be hard to make a guess or expectation.
Say assuming spot on title, spot on description, 1,000,000/month searches as per ysm/overture tool, in a niche full of averagely curious web users
What would you expect, you see, if its less, you know alls not wellin the kingdom of,,
on the other hand if its ahead, you're smiling
If the searches are less than the indicated 1,000,000 so adjust expectation accordingly,
if your market is historically not keen on klicking on unkown website urls, adjust accordingly
