4 ways to do keyword research for AdSense pages
1. If you have a Google AdWords account, pretend you are planning to advertise using different keywords, and see how much you would have to pay. This will give you a good indication of the popularity of the keywords.
Here’s how. In your AdWords account, follow these steps. In step 3, “Set Pricing”, click “Want to purchase the most clicks possible?”, and the AdWords system will calculate a suggested maximum you would have to pay per click to advertise for particular keywords or key phrases.
2. Keyword Elite 2.0 is a really powerful tool which can generate thousands of key phrases that people are typing into search engines. You can use it to choose highly profitable keywords to use on your web pages. It shows you, for example, how many advertisers have ad campaigns at AdWords for each phrase. If you’re using AdSense, the more advertisers the better!
3. You can use Wordtracker to look for the 10,000, 20,000 and 100,000 most popular keywords. You can also use it to compile a long list of useful list of keywords relating to one topic. It’s the tool many professionals use.
Using Wordtracker, you can also find out exactly how many competitive web pages you must beat to get search engine traffic. Wordtracker’s KEI (Keyword Effectiveness Index) helps you decide if a keyword is really worth targeting. You can use KEI to identify keywords with high traffic and low competition.
Wordtracker has a free trial, but it’s fairly limited. You can subscribe for as little as a week and do a LOT of keyword research in that time. I have an annual account because I use it so frequently for keyword research.
4. The brainstorming and research tools in Site Build It! are my favorite way to do brainstorming for keywords that are in high demand and low supply. SBI is a superb tool – actually, a suite of tools. It’s an all-in-one brainstorming, web hosting, site-building and web marketing tool. Type in a keyword and SBI Manager will present you with dozens of profitable keywords – ones with high demand and low supply. It can present them in order of profitability. Drill down, and you’ll get dozens more profitable keywords.
Top Tip: Identifying keywords that have high demand and low supply is crucially important to your success. Finding them increases your chance of ranking well in search engines and getting decent traffic. SBI teaches you how to do this. There’s no point in chasing high-priced keywords if those keywords are so competitive you never manage to get traffic to them.
SBI also has an “Analyze It” tool that helps you build keyword-rich pages that rank highly in search engines. It’s simply superb. I use it and love it.
Site Build It! is an excellent choice for quickly building large, simple sites designed to rank highly in search engines – which makes it perfect for generating lots of AdSense revenue. I strongly recommend you check it out.
However, SBI is MUCH more than a bunch of tools. It provides a complete step-by-step education on how to build a successful online business, as taught in more than 30 universities and colleges around the world. SBI existed long before AdSense, but it’s perfect for AdSense.
I’ve recommended it to friends and family who use it and love it.
Quick Summary: Build useful, simple, theme-based sites – one topic per page – using valuable key phrases that are high in demand and low in supply. For researching, building and promoting successful, easy-to-build sites that rank high in search engines, there’s one suite of tools that’s head and shoulders above all the rest.
