How many keywords should I choose?

The number of keywords we target will depend on a number of factors, mostly to do with the sector you work in and the number of your competitors appearing in the search rankings for relevant search terms.

How many links do I need to my website?

Links to your website are seen as votes of confidence by Google and the other search engines. The important factor is the quality of the website linking to you, rather than the absolute number of links. A link from a high quality, website that is seen as an authority in your sector will be worth far more than many links from low quality, irrelevant websites.
