Describe your products or services - Instead of using one word generic keyword which would mean many things, try using keywords which are more detailed and focused. For example the keyword "Shoes" can mean not only different types of shoes but also many things related to them like "shoe horns", "horse shoe" etc.,. Instead, use keywords which best describe your product/services like: "Discount Sports Shoes UK"

Highlight specific needs of the customer to fulfill which they type keywords in the Search Engines.

Sometimes some jargons are particular helpful when the provider has a niche market of specialized users. Like some terms are very commonly used in the medical community. So a website supplying products to doctors/hospitals etc., can look for such keywords which have search volumes.
