Before creating search engine marketing strategy it is very important to know the target audience of your business and time frame for penetration in market.
SEO is a vast pool where you can hit keywords according to your business requirement.
As a small business you are looking for customers. First, identify your ideal customer. Then create pages just for them. My site has over 400 pages and most people find one of those article pages, not my homepage. Customers are looking for both information and experts on the products they want. Your web site is the place to showcase both. The more you show them your expertise the more confident they will be to deal with you. How to make your pages search engine friendly is a whole other story. For help on how to do that I recommend the following web sites.
