- without SEO , no one will find your site
SEO starts with a strategic selection of your URL. Should you use you business name for your URL? Sometimes this is not the best decision for your Web Site. If you decide to select a URL that reflects your businesses products or services, how do you find one that is still available and will still help search engine users (customers) find your Web Site.
The second, and arguably one of the most important factors, is 'content'. We are referring to text you use in your site that describes your product and or services. Your content must not only accurately describe your business offerings to you Web Visitors but also to the Search Engines. This can be more complicated than it seems!
But by far the most important factor that will increase you sites exposure and Search Engine Ranking is the number and type of incoming links from other web sites. This is by far the hardest part of the ongoing process of developing and maintaining a web site. Finding linking partners is essential and take a lot of 'leg-work but if you have friend and associates with web sites that is the first places to start.
The code and other background factors can be Optimized by your Web Programmer while developing your site and in an ongoing SEO strategy. These factors are a little to complicated to describe here and usually would not edited or modified by you.

- SEO
It is very important that your domain name (URL) reflect your keywords in some way. Checkout GoDaddy and see if you can find a url that contains some, if not all, of your keywords.
Try some different variations of your keywords with descriptive words or phrases added. Using the shoe store example, words like 'Affordable', 'cheap', 'custom', 'women's', 'men's' and 'work' shoes. If you have a regional business then try your state or city in your URL. Custom-Shoes-Maui.com for example. Give it a try, be creative and have some fun.
