How to perform SEO to get results if current methods aren't working?

Hello Experts,

So I am a little bit awestruck right now because I've been working on websites for quite some time and I know the fundamentals of SEO and I've used my knowledge in the past with much success and have been very pleased up to this point.  However, I am currently working on a website and the SEO tactics that I've known and used for past work don't seem to be working for me for this website and I don't really know why.  I've added all the keywords in the meta tag area, filled out the descriptions, and the title pages of each page/site, but I'm still not seeing the website on the first page of google... I don't even see the website on the second or third page of google.  Why might this be happening?  Are there other things I should be doing that I'm not doing?  Could the program I'm using have anything to do with it?  I'm using Adobe Muse right now which is the first time I've ever used it for website building.  I usually use Dreamweaver and I've had success with DW, but I thought it couldn't make that much of a difference.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The first thing is to check the main keywords and subject that apply to your website.  If you put them in Google and you get thousands of results then it will difficult for you to make it to the top of the listings.  You are competing against all those other sites.
