Jay Drake,

You started on topic regarding my comment that I find it difficult to comprehend 100 keyword phrases and ended up somehow comparing it to selling pizzas in a pet store and impulse-buying displays at the POP. Maybe you think I was implying that the 100 phrases would somehow be unrelated to the content of the hypothetical e-commerce site that would use them.

Let's get back on track and clarify this discussion. If it's a site that sells flower pots, I cannot think of 100 different keyword phrases that someone would reasonably consider in searching for such a site. Even if I could, I think the majority of searchers would use...are you ready?..."flower pots". I would therefore focus on "flower pots" as a keyword term.

I would find it a waste of time dreaming up terms such as "bloom kettle" and "holder of vegetation" because no one would search that way and I suspect if someone did, they would not have the intelligence to make a purchase. This does not mean that the flower pot site wouldn't have enough savy to also sell hangers for the pots, plant food, seeds, etc. The main business of this example is to sell flower pots.
Focus.
