Is there any relationship between the website position and traffic or page rank

    If my website is between 1-10 position for a particular keyword search, but still not having any unique visitors, what could be the reason and how to get traffic to it.

    The only reason you wouldnt be receiving much traffic is because of the volume of searches for that particular word or phrase. For example a site may rank at #1 for search "kangaroo crossing", but if there are no people who are actually typing that into the search engine then - no traffic. (Yeah, I know a silly example for a keyword phrase, but hope it gets the point across).

    Use a tool such as the Overture keyword tool http://inventory.overture.com/ to get an idea of what the search volume is for your particular word or phrase

    Seodigger will automatically pick up up to 250 (!) keywords from your site, will show their position in Google, and search volume at Overture and Wordtracker.

    From that you can try to conclude why some keyword was picked (title, subtitle, bolding..try to find a logic behind it). It is then wise to optimize keyword(s) which rank high and have high search volume.

    For more traffic use social bookmarking. It takes a couple of minutes to submit your article to OnlyWire.com who in turn distribute it to around fifteen other social bookmarking sites.
