I was about to test adwords out for the first time and thought for promoting some CB products. I found some good products to promote but I have no idea how to find the correct keywords to promote them. I basically want to find a way to see how many other affiliates are promoting the same product and see what keywords they are using. That way I will know my competition and find out which keywords are actually converting by studying them over a couple of days. I think I saw a software on the market for this - any help? Cheers
Thats a good question. I was curious if it would be wrong to include the hoplink to direct the adwords ads straight to the site you are promoting with your affiliate ID.
go to the home page of the product, view source and use their keywords, you can also use wordtracker.com or there is a program called keyword elite listed in clickbank that is popular
'View Source" will only tell me what keywords they are using for organic SEO - Not for Adwords. Say if I found 10 affiliates promoting one CB product - how could i find out what adwords keywords they are using?
They will be bidding on the typos of the keyword because it will be the same quality click for as little as $0.01 per click
I would just start a blog about the subject, install Hittail, and use the keyword data you get from the blog. Or, approach someone who owns a blog about the subject and lease their keyword data. If you are going to be in the PPC section, an organic-only site will have no problem leasing you their keyword data.
There are many keyword suggestion tools which can help you with this process. Here is a list of some of them : http://www.webdigity.com/index.php/topic,6872.0.A+complete+list+of+keyword+suggestion+tools.html
There are some products that can help you: I use Traffic Travis. I also heard good things about Adspy and Extreme conversions.
