There is no simple answer to this. You will need to have many factors taken into consideration to even come close in a keyword search as this. I am moving this to site promotion. While there you might want to read some of the tutorials that are there as well as some of the past posts to get an idea of where to even begin.

Hi ShadyDW!

As Rob said, read the other tutorials and posts but focus on keyword selection at first. With the number of pages out there today, the only way you can rank in the top 10 for a term as vague as "T-shirt" is to spend probably hundreds of thousands of dollars. Optimization alone can not get you in the top-10 for a general term like that.

 

Instead, think about the people your shirts would appeal to. Maybe "Funny Saying T-Shirts" or "Quality pocket T-shirts" or something like that. You'd need to make a list of all the phrases that best describe your type shirts and then check the search engines to see how much competition there is and use something like overture to see what demand there is for such phrases. Pick the ones with the most visitors looking for it and the least competition and aim for those phrases as "keyword phrases".

 

In today's internet, you have to find a niche or have a bazillion dollars for buying your way into the top of the lists... otherwise there are too many others who will beat you. The internet is becoming like everything else as it matures - cable classifies channels as family, sport, movie or adult - the phone book lists doctors under Family Doctor, Podiatrist, Dermatologist, Internal medicine, etc... the same with the Internet - t-shirts are best found when grouped by prints, features, who is wearing them (casual t-shirts versus sports t-shirts for example.) etc.

 

Of course, you could try the more shady methods of getting high on the list but Google just removed a ton of sites for using such techniques... it's at your own risk and almost never pays off in the long run.
