Greetings, 247tools!
Believe it or not, you have already done a great job of taking care of
the "keyword" part.
If you right-click on your webpage and select "View Source", you can
see that in your html source code you have specified meta keywords as
follows:
<META NAME="keywords" CONTENT="24-7-tools, tools, power tools, air
tools, hand tools, automotive tools, auto tools, discount tools, Air
Compressor, Woodworking, welding, Cordless Drill, Cordless Tools,
Hardware, Socket Set, sander, Grinder, jointer, router, garden tools">
Now, although many Search Engines look at meta keywords, Google does
not do so any longer, because some webmasters tried to "stack" this
section with a lot of terms irrelevant to their website in an attempt
to get more search hits.
However, Google DOES look at the text content on your site quite
seriously, and you've done a great job there, too, with your left-hand
menu listing of tools.
If you want to, you can add some more relevant items to your meta
keywords (although I would be judicious about it; 200+ keywords is
excessive, and some Search Engines may now ignore meta keywords if the
list is too long, indicating a "stacking" attempt).
If you enter your website URL into the Search Engine Spider simulator,
you can get a feel for what the Googlebot sees when it spiders your
site:

Do you have the Google Toolbar installed in your browser? If not, I
recommend that you do so. You can download it here:
http://toolbar.google.com
If you call up your website with the Toolbar visible in your browser
window, it will show your "Page Rank" on a scale from 0 to 10.
Unfortunately, your page does not have a Rank at all. It is my
understanding that for a Page Rank of 0 the bar will display as white;
while a "grayed out" Page Rank usually indicates the page has not yet
been ranked by Google.
I encourage you to read the following excellent papers on Page Rank.
"Google's PageRank Explained and how to make the most of it" by Phil

The best way to improve your Page Rank is by contacting websites with
***related*** themes (such as websites about construction,
do-it-yourself home improvement, etc.) which have a Page Rank of 3 or
higher, and ask them if they would be willing to put a link to your
site on theirs in exchange for you putting a link to their site on
yours. Having sites ranked 3 or higher linking to yours is a VERY
iimportant factor in your Page Rank.
NOTE: BE VERY CAREFUL TO ***NOT*** PARTICIPATE IN LINK FARMS!!!
Google has been tweaked to weed out sites involved with link farming.
Participating in a link farm system, such as WebPosition Gold or
LinksToYou, is a good way to get your site banned from Google.
Before Rating my Answer, if you have any questions about this

Best Wishes on getting your website Ranking high, with lots of search
hits!
