when someone search for my target keyword ?
Now this is the tough question!
SEO is optimization, meaning optimization of your site's content impact in search engine. This means that content still comes first, no content, no optimization.
So there is nothing like do this and get that in the SEO field, everything is to be understood as relative. To evaluate the difficulty to get well ranked on a particular keyword, the first thing to do is to study the top ten sites on this keyword in search engines (main ones, google, yahoo, live).
This ( pages indexed, backlinks and pagerank of your challengers), and the the total amount of results on that keyword will give you a good idea of the difficulty.
Obvioulsy, it will be (a lot) harder to end up well placed with heavily used keywords, such as "internet" than with a unique keyword such as "picabouille".
And

this was a quite old test, and was followed by binarygangster as an example to illustrate the powerfulness of keywords in page title, look at this page :
http://www.google.com/search?q=picabouille
As you can see,
www.binarygangster.com/general/picaboui ... t2766.html is first now, because it's using picabouille in the page title, the phpBB SEO page used to be first with picabouille only mentioned in the page body.
So now this illustrate my point even more precisely, since it's a proof that minor enhancements can make a site show up in better position than another better ranked one, especially when there is very few matching results.
The harder the competition will get, the more content and related content you'll need to go high
