Short tail keywords could be competitive is fierce, and you need to have an authoritative well written, and well optimized site to rank well. On the other hand long tail might be searched for by very few people.

Then the visitors searching for long tail keywords know exactly what they want, they convert amazingly well to sales and ad clicks.
