Overwhelmed!

Brand spankin new to SEO. Trying to learn everything I can but getting overwhelmed. I'm a bit of a slow learner. I have created a website, but not sure what to focus on first. Do I work on keywords first, then work on the content etc?

I've submitted to directories and even wrote an article, but I believe I should focus on a couple things until I become efficient and then move on to the next.

This is what I've done so far. supportyourdrinkinghabit.com
Any and all advice is welcome. Just be gentle please!

Don't title home 'home', it adds no value whatsoever. Your meta descriptions are too short and should be used for keywords and LSI keywords and not just the title of your site. Sign up for webmasters tools at http://www.google.com/webmasters/ to get feedback from Google.

You've not got tons of content, made even worse by having way too much code on the page. Take it to external files that you link to. All that inline styling and sizing won't help. It doesn't validate either.

Get some proper hosting, for static page hosting it should be dirt cheap. That switch to your homestead URL is horrible.

I would definitely look at the keyword phrases you would ideally like people to find you with, and put them in your titles, urls, header tags, paragraph text and inbound links to the pages on your site. The keywords in your meta keywords of: nutrition, health, diet, fruit, business opportunity, home business, work from home, home health business, you need to decide which end of those you're trying to attract traffic for.

Thank you. I appreciate the advice. Duly noted. Again, my progress will be slow but hopefully steady.
