How To Make Money Online – Keyword Research

Keyword Research

Keyword Research is one of the most integral parts of your money making venture.  You need to find a niche which you can occupy with relative easy, find what keywords visitors are searching for, and then use the keywords effectively to make sure you are the top of Google.

But how do you know which keywords you should be using?

First off, always try and find a topic which you enjoy writing about, and which you have some background knowledge in.  This will make life infinitely more simple.  Later on when you have grown more established you can begin to diversify, up until that day however, you want to be able to spiel out some interesting, keyword rich content.

When you have chosen your overall topic, it’s time to look at what particular sector you want to delve in to.

You might start off with a subject such as technology, but that is way too broad, you will never get increased traffic like that, and I have never got traffic to my blog by making broad based tech posts.

Likewise going after the iPhone nich might seem profitable, however you will be up against some IMMENSE competition,

But what about iPhone apps, now we are getting somewhere, still a lot of competition, but not quite so much. Narrow it down just a little bit further.

iPhone Business applications, free iPhone applications, language iPhone applications, we suddenly have as many possibilities as our imagination can come up with. Now all that is left is to choose the topic.  this is easier said than done, but fortunately we have a little bonus tool in our corner to help us find the best keywords!

The Google Keyword Tool is a great way to see what people are currently paying Google Adwords (Which feeds AdSense) and helps you see not only what the value of a click might be, but also how many searches there are for your keyword. This gives you a mild indication of the traffic you could receive, and the value it is worth.

You will also notice a green bar called advertiser competition the fuller this green bar, the more stable you will find the keyword values!

Remember though, Adsense will not be your only earner here.  If you are using Hubpages then you will also be looking to find keywords which will draw in potential buyers on Amazon and eBay.

When you pick out your keywords, try to find a few slight variations, these will come in handy later on.

The Google Keywords tool is not your only tool for finding the best keywords for Google, you can also use free tools such as Traffic Travis or Traffic Travis Pro, which costs a little more bt provides a lot more detail!

Now that you have your keywords though, we can begin to write our very first article, however we do need to go over the five article platforms I have recommended.
