How many local and monthly searches should my keyword be having to give me considerable return on adsense?
As many as possible? Your question doesn't give much away. It obviously depends on what your chosen keyword is and click-thru rate.
It depends on many factors but I can give you an example in one of my sites in health niche: It is getting 600 unique visitors a day with more than 1000 pageviews that gives me average of $13-18 in adsense. But it really depends on keyword and niche, because I have sites in other niches where CPC is way lower and some where i even much higher. Hope this helps!
it totally depends on the CPC of your keywords. if your CPC is medium then 1k visitors per day can give you a handsone money. thanks
Thanks this is actually a positive thing since I'm planning on starting a health site too, and it's encouraging to know that the eCPM is easily above $5 which I consider as the average for a niche/site to be worthwhile.
Jup, adsense for health and other competitive niches are paying really good. I usually mix adsense income with affiliate income on the same website but just don't place adsense ads on those pages where I place affiliate link to maximize my earning. It is highly recommended strategy
I will go with adsense only for a start, it will be my first health related site ever. But I know that it is also a very competitive niche (since it is high paying) so traffic generation will be an issue, I hope with time and patience and a little work, enough traffic can be achieved.
I have a ton of local websites that I use - create as many as possible, throw in some media traffic and let it run autopilot. You don't have to necessarily rank for keywords to earn money with adsense ... you can also use other methods to make money with it. If you think smart, you can make up to $10k per month using some various other techniques.
As an SEO expert, I'll tell you the best keyword will have at least 10,000 global monthly searches. Using our High PR backlinks we've helped sites make as much as $20,000 per month on Google adsense. I can help you too if you need it.
