How to Find Top
Paying Keywords for Adsense
This is another one of those articles where
I need to put a disclaimer up at the top or people are going to start running
off to creating web sites for people looking for lawyers to bail them out of
the drunk tank somewhere in Austin Texas or
sites promoting auto insurance quotes. So here's the disclaimer. Take
it for what it's worth to you. The rates you
are about to see in this article are NOT the
rates that you are going to get paid whenever somebody clicks on your Adsense
ads for these niches. This is what the
advertiser is paying and Google will take a good chunk of it. Okay, now that we
have that out of the way, just how do we find the top paying keywords for
Adsense?
There are actually three ways to do this. The
first way is simply to go to the Google Adwords site and use their traffic
estimator. You'll of course have to have a list of keywords to start with, but
by simply plugging them in, you'll see what Google estimates as your average
cost per click as an Adwords advertiser. Of course this only gives you some
idea of what you'll actually get paid, as like I said, Google is going to take
a healthy chunk of this money. Plus, this is the going rate for search sites
and not content sites, which are generally lower. So it's not unusual that a
keyword that costs $30 only brings the Adsense click a buck or two.
The next way to find the top paying
keywords for Adsense is to go to the Google search engine itself and type in
any keyword or keyword phrase that you're interested in. After you do this,
look to the right of the page at how many paid ads there are. If there are a
lot of paid ads for that keyword or keyword phrase, that means there is a lot
of competition for those keywords. More competition means higher cost per
clicks. Of course this is all relative to the niche you're targeting. So if you
want to get an exact dollar figure, you can go to the Google traffic estimator
and plug that keyword in to see what the actual amount is.
The third way to find the top paying
keywords for Adsense is to go back to the search engine and type in the phrase
"how to find top paying keywords for Adsense." You are quite likely
to find a number of sites that have already done this research for you and have
listed the top paying keywords. The problem
with these lists is that some of these sites don't update regularly, so you
don't know how accurate these figures are. Therefore,
you have to be careful with these lists. Always double check with Google.
There is no rocket science to doing this.
If you're really hung up on doing this, you can buy something like Keyword
Elite and find all the high paying keywords you want. It may very well be worth
your time, depending on how many sites you plan to put up.
