I am new to this field but I think its a great hobby. I am online alot anyway and I already have a couple of websites so I figured hey why not try to make a little extra money? I have bought a couple of books and done alot of research online but I have a few questions... 1- what does this community define as a "valuble keyword" in Overture? Suppose I find a few topics that I could consolodate into 1 site, on different pages, that seems to pay about 5 bucks a click, according to overture. It THAT worth the effort? Obviously 20 dollar ads are worth it, but I was wondering what some of your parameters were... 2- If I were to want to know how many times a keyword has been entered into a search engine over a period of time( year / month), what tool would I use? 3- What makes you think that you can get an underdeveloped niche site a prominent spot on the S E results page? Im sorry if this seems to be in the wrong section, but I thought it was close enough. Cheers...
uh, lots of questions there, piratebroadcast... you're probably off-track in looking specifically for high-paying keywords. More often than not, I've gotten killed by targeting a niche just because it had $10+ keywords. instead, look for less-developed niches, and use keyword prices just as a double-check to make sure it's not some horrendously low-paying niche. Like, where the top keyword pays $.32.
yeah, sorry for so many questions, but thanks for the response. what about 5-3-2 dollar words? I just cant see myself breaking my neck for 50cent and under clicks... but like I said, Im new to this game, thats why Im here, learning from the masters.
