High ranking under a good keyword phrase but no Traffic from MSN.

Recently i searched nichebot and found a term that has a count of 28,000 , I worked hard and created a nice site surrounding the topic. I got it indexd in Google and MSN under 72 hours and was fast #7 under the term in MSN. So i thought well i should be getting some traffic from MSN now, but 0, 0.0, nothing, any clue why?

Best regards,

Eiso

 

Nichebot? What the heck is that?

What is the keyword?

 

"college finance", and "finance college"

 

Why would anyone need to go past #1?

 

you have a point there Crazy_Rob but ranking on #1 under "Finance College" and #7 "college finance", should get me some traffic from MSN, or am i wrong?

 

Probably would get some traffic.

well i will write more content on different keywords, shoudl all work out.

 

Have you user DPs Keyword Suggestion tool to see how many searches a day there are on those terms?

Maybe very few people ever search on that particular term. And then there is the question of how your site is described in the little blurb given in the SERP. Maybe your description just isn't what people are looking for.

Finally MSN doesn't drive much traffic. I have some sites ranked #1 for certain keywords and I'm lucky if I see 10 visitors per day from MSN.

 

I ran the query on nichebot and DP and am seeing 3 searches a day on the term "college finance". Am I missing something? Does not seem to be a lot of searches...

BTW, also saw that you were #1 on MSN now. That is good... but there just does not seem to be a lot of traffic on this term.

 

Thanks for the tips, nichebot decieved me on this one, i will use DP's tool from now on.

 

DP's tool is very usefull. I use it all the time and highly recommend it.

 

I like it and helped me find a good new keyword phrase which I will aim for.
