    id argue to the contrary, if your on page seo isnt done right, then your never going to rank for keywords, regardless of how much off page you do.

    you could link build a site for the phrase "garden furniture" for instance, with really good high quality links, but if your page your optimizing, doesnt contain anything to do with garden furniture at all, youve got no chance.

    You're completely wrong. You can rank terribly optimised sites for competitive search terms on the strength of backlinks alone. You can't do it the other way round and rank only on onpage factors.

    Your "garden furniture" example is a poor one, as nobody is going to link build for a term that is absolutely nothing to do with your site and doesn't contain anything about the site. If you did try that, with enough links I'd expect you to get de-indexed rather than ranked.

    offpage is alot more important than onpage thats pretty much well known but both should be done to get maximum benefit, build some quality links to your site and your half way there
