There are soo many high paying keyword lists you can find around. Also can use Adword keyword selector tool.
Try https://adwords.google.com/select/TrafficEstimatorSandbox, dont depend on it 100% though, its for a rough idea. There, you haven't had to spend a penny.
You don't want to find high paying keywords, you want to find high paying keywords with hardly any competition so you can rank easily and actually get clicks.
I Guess Adwords Keyword tool is the best place to find that one. It gives all the details like bid price, search volumes etc.
or rank for high traffic keywords and then put high paying keywords. That is the key. Most important thing to cover first is high traffic low competition. Not necessarily high paying.
The highest paying keyword is "structured settlements." Now, go build a web site around that keyword and put adsense on it. But you won't get any traffic because that keyword is very competitive, which is why it pays so much. Your site is competing with all the other sites going after the same keyword. Unless you have a trick for getting traffic to your site, you won't make any money with this keyword.
Yeah that's true, but there is "tons" of keywords out there that pay $1 a click and are pretty simple to rank for. I showed how to here using a tool, just scroll to the second post it's more focused to Adsense. As you can see, new site now earning $XX a day with little work averaging just over $1 clicks. There is many thousands of $1 and over keywords that anyone can rank for.
Ahh see that's where you are not quite correct on all counts, i plugged the term in to my tool and i will show you: As you can see the term gets 33k searches a month, the ad cost is $22.75 and the SOC (Strength of Competition) is 18,100 which is based on exact phrase match in quotes, plus the allinanchor, title, url operators and yes the red dot means quite difficult. Now i will click a button and show you alternate terms with that keyphrase in them. Note the ad cost, we are now looking at double the price per click, strength of competition is almost nothing and some there's only 100 other sites out there with the term in the title or URL. Granted these dozen terms aren't getting 30k combined, but they are getting around 10k. Make a page targeting each term, 10k visits with a nicely optimized theme at 5% CTR is 500 clicks a month at easily $1 per click and you are looking at $500 plus a month because you will be pulling other long-tail besides those 12 terms. Even on a new domain, even a newbie could land these terms on the front page within a month, if not just weeks. Work Smarter, Not Harder.
Does anybody know, how much Long-Term Keywords Wordtracker shows in the paid version? Want to buy it, but not sure..if it is for what I am looking for..
IMHO Wordtracker is a horrible tool, so i couldnt imagine paying for it. Take a look at Micro Niche in my sig its what i done the screen shots above with, its $67 and you own it outright. Best money ever spent if you want $1 clicks for keywords that are simple to rank for, it does a hundred times more than WordTracker.
