I want to start new Website in a highly competitive niche. And, most of the other sites already have many pages published already and posting mulitipe times daily. I am concerned that I won't be able to compete if I don't publish the same amount of daily content. Please advise on SEO strategy for a new site in a very competitive niche.

As for optimizing your article. You need to make sure it's written well and it must be optimized at the same time. This can get tricky sometimes if you aren't use to how this works. I'd say after your first 5 articles that you're trying to optimize you'll get the hang of it
Your keyword density (how many times your keyword or words show up in the article) should appear no more than 1% - 3% of the time. Some people will say you're safe with 4% - 5% but why risk hurting your website over 1% - 2% right? Basically this means that you will want your keyword in your article one to three times ever 100 words. Posting your keyword a few times per sentence will not only make it a difficult read and hard to understand, but Google will slap you with it's penalty stick (similar to a ban hammer, just smaller).
Make the article a good read, don't add a random keyword into a sentence because you're trying to hit that 1% - 3% keyword density. If people think the article is written by a 3rd grader then the chances of them coming back are pretty slim.
Write what you want to write about and also what the good traffic topics are. This will bring in traffic from all over the place since you'll be hitting competitive keywords and non competitive keywords at the same time. Obviously you'll rank quicker for the non competitive keywords first, but target both sets at the same time because it will help out in the long run
Thanks,
Razzy I know people who have added over 400,000 words of content to their website and still haven't outranked big competitors. On the other hand, I know people who set up a website and write for fun, but don't focus on how much content rather than optimizing it for Google but still making it readable to it's users. These people usually do a better job than the thousands of articles posted that are low quality. As for optimizing your article. You need to make sure it's written well and it must be optimized at the same time. This can get tricky sometimes if you aren't use to how this works. I'd say after your first 5 articles that you're trying to optimize you'll get the hang of it :) Now then, to optimize an article you mainly need to focus on keyword density and also what not to do. Your keyword density (how many times your keyword or words show up in the article) should appear no more than 1% - 3% of the time.
