While I was researching keywords on a variety of niches, a few questions arose while choosing the profitable ones: 1. Which are better, high paying ones (meaning CPC) or high traffic ones? 2. Is the google keyword tool sufficient enough? 3. Is keyword elite as good a tool as people suggest? 4. What is the best strategy to find high profitable keywords? Please help, anyone...
1) It would depend on what you are doing with your site. If your site is going to be made-for-adsense, high cpc keywords might help make more money. On the flip side, those keywords will likely be higher competition. So it may be tougher to get rankings & traffic. High traffic keywords are often have high competition too. 2) For some people the Google keyword tool is enough. If your strategy is based around long tail keywords, it may not be enough. The Google keyword tool rounds numbers off and doesn't go into enough detail for some keywords. For long tail keywords you may be better off using a couple sources, such as wordtracker or keyword elite. 3) I'd like to know about this too. I use SEO Elite and it's pretty good software. I assume Keyword Elite would be just as good, but for keywords instead of links. 4) There are some lists of the top paying keywords online. High profitably can be based on a few factors: -how much the keyword makes per click -how enticing those ads are to click on -how much competition there is to get search engine rankings The best strategy would depend on what you're looking for in a keyword. Rather than picking a niche by keyword, you may be better off picking a niche based on your interests. Then you will be more motivated to work on those websites.
Thanks for your advice and help..some rep coming your way I am actually not relying on search engines for my traffic, rather article directories and forums. As I am not writing the content therefore the niche also does not matter. Let me put forth an example to clarify: For example I choose the niche as 'credit cards'. Fierce competition, i know. Now do I find out which keywords are better paying relating to this and as you put it, is there a method of finding which type of ads will show and the CPC, etc on my credit card site? I tried searching and looking at the ads on other sites, but I want to ensure before hand .. I am not even sure if i have posted an intelligent question, but I am newbie to all this
