This strategy goes beyond search engine optimization. If one of your goals is top listings in search results, there's no better way to discover what works than to search for key phrases and then analyze each site design of the top listings. Do not copy content or code verbatim from any website. You may face the risk of legal action, so learn from others but be very careful to keep your design completely original.
