Users check only one 1st page of the search page and hardly the second page. So if you are listed in the page 5 with competitive keyword very few visitors visit your website.
If you are listed on 5th page on very competitive keyword then it's good sign for you you are on right track, do more work and gain quality back links you will be get ranking
Not really good since most of internet users tend to visit sites that are listed on first page(first 10 sites) only. Try to make your site to be at first page in serp.
As per the facts and figures available, more than 80% of the traffic comes from the first 3 pages of search engine result pages. This should answer your question.
I suppose it would be considered a good ranking if it was a high competing keyword such as "SEO" however in terms of traffic its still too high for you to receive a good amount of traffic.
Top 50 is good if its a competitive term. Im top 50 for a term with 280,000,000 results and I get maybe 10 or so clicks from it a day. Some people go past first few pages, but most dont.
It really depends on the popularity of the KW you're targeting. I personally stay away from really competitive KW's as it will take longer to rank high in the SERPs. I'd rather focus on niches that are less competitive and can get in the top 10 within 3-6 months. From my own searching experience, I don't look past page 3 as the relevancy becomes less and less.
Agreed. You can count upto maximum 3 pages in Google..That's why when I do the keyword and competitors analysis for my clients I do it upto 3 pages.
Surveys suggest people never look beyond the first 2 pages, i personally never look beyond the first. To get in the top 10: Make sure you have more backlinks than your competition Make sure your page abides to all the SEO rules Make sure your page has a higher page rank than your compitetion Make sure you have a good keyword density But ive personally experience that seo traffic aint what people have made it out to be. Write artcile, do social networking, submit your rss feeds, create viral software, post viral videos that will give you ample amounts of traffic.

under 50 is a good undertaking if you are vying for a competitive keyword but people rarley go past the first 2 search pages (20 results)
it's good that your on good way just some more effort will give you more upgrade in search engines but it's not enought if u want good traffic u need to optimize your website on 1 page for few high traffic keywors in your niche.
You will get most of your traffic in the top 10, but if you are in the top 50 for a very popular keyword you will get some traffic, even if you are #40-50.
