: Is it possible to find all the keywords for a site that rank it in the top 10 results? If so, how? One thing I know for sure is that even if a site only had one keyword on it, it would

@Mendez628

SeMRush is a good tool for this, it obviously won't be a comprehensive list of keywords, but the most accurate and comprehensive info I've seen.

If it's your website a great place to see what you rank well for is your site stats. It doesn't break down which terms are top ten but it does show what people are using to find your site. You can then use any number of tracking tools to tell you where you rank for those keywords quickly and easily. That's more useful then knowing only which ones are top ten because:


being in the to 30 (e.g. first three pages) is considered where you want to be. Yes, being top ten is ideal but statistic show you can get good traffic up to position 30. That's where results drop off dramatically.
if they are not already #1 you can consider tweaking your pages to improve those rankings to drive even more traffic in. You know you're in good shape already and if you can identify areas of improvement you can then be sure those pages are optimized to deliver maximum traffic


EDIT

External sites are difficult to do because you don't have any access to their data. What you could do is check to see where they rank on the keywords you rank well for and are trying to rank well for. The more they match the more they are a competitor to you.

You can use tools to show incoming links to the site, and check the anchor text of those links. Yahoo site explorer is commonly used for this.

Then you can also check the keyword density on every page of the site and pick the keywords that show up most often.

Finally, if you own the website then google webmaster tools is your friend. It shows both the probable keywords you rank for and actual terms people used to find your site. Google analytics or any other analytics software can also help with this.
