First Page Rankings = Traffic?

My website is climbing the search engines, and I expect to be on the first page for 3-5 of my top keywords within the next few months if all goes well. My biggest fear is that my first page rankings won’t equal heavy traffic (and ultimately conversions). Does anyone have any real-life experience on whether first page rankings guarantee heavy traffic?
I have an attractive site that works as fast and as easily as my competitors. The address is www.liverystable.net, it is a classifieds site where people can list horses for sale.

YES
I am a webmaster and have worked with some companies that place in top google placements for their keywords. As they went from low ranking to consistent high rankings, they are now one of the top in their industry.
When you start to reach the first few placements for your keywords your traffic will increase greatly.
To give you an example I usually rank 9-11 for a popularly searched term on google. I usually get one hit from this about once a week. For a few days I was #3 for this search, and I was getting about 10 hits per day.
It sounds like you have done your homework by knowing how many people are searching for your keywords – I’m sure you’ll do well!

There is no “guarantee” with the search engines and traffic these days, however we can be sure that you will receive more traffic depending on how many people search per month for those targeted keywords. You could come up #1 in Google for a keyword but if it is searched 20 times per month, it may be useless. Perhaps do some keyword research to see before getting your hopes up?
