I don't get it. All the time I see people saying that they got "8000 uniques today" etc etc. And they barely know anything about seo work. How do they get this many visitors? I have a website <a>http://www.confessionhub.com</a> and im working to get it on the first page of google for certain keywords. But there already websites on the first page (out of the hundreds of confession websites) and i bet they got there doing nothing at all. Whats up?
In the long run it's more about being relevant and having unique content that users actually like vs. artificially inflating your ranks with SEO.
