• Are the keywords relevant to your website’s content?
• Does your content contain the keywords?
• Will people find what they’re looking for on your site using these keywords? Or will they land on an irrelevant page?
• Will this traffic result in revenue, increased website traffic, better website ranking or some other goal?
