I know this is an old post. But I got to through my 2 cents in for what it is worth.
I spend alot of time looking at the top sites for a given keyword or phrase on google. Mainly onsite seo stuff.
Alot top pages aren't that se friendly code wise, but every top page has a ton of backlinks to it.A se sends it little spider bot thru a site and looks at the links from other sites and say "click,burp,whirlll" wich is bot speak for "this site is really important other sites with the keyword phrase are linking to it"

A site that has a chance of being ban by google can also hurt a sites overall rank.
My advice is get a program like webceo. Do good keyword research. Build each and every site with a se in mind.Even a little traffic over a period of time can add up.
Here is a basic checklist I have come up with for building a se friendly page:
1.Put the keyword tag in the first line of your <head> tag. Avoid stop words and make your title 4-8 words in length.
2. Put in a meta description google doesn't use it anymore but some se's do.
3. Don't overdue keywords. Pick one keyword or phrase and build around it. Google has free tools to help with keyword research.
Body Area:
4. Keyword/phrase should appear in the <h1><h1> tag.
5. Images should have alt tag with the keyword in it
6. Keyword at start of body.
7. Around 115 words minimum in body text. With keywords appearing 2-3 times.
8. Avoid repeating keywords in a row.
9. Underline keywords and keywords in bold. I put these at the bottom in my copyright statement.
10. Keywords appear in text links
11. Keywords appear at the end of the body.

If you are wondering where I came up with these,they are basically the same stuff webceo looks at.
But once you put a few sites thru you will have your own mental checklist for building a page

Some don't put much stock in software like webceo. I take a slightly different view;most search engines are nothing but a robot and I don't speak robotonize but webceo dose
