How To Choose The Right Keywords For Making Money With Google AdSense

Written by Garry Conn on August 9th, 2011 Posted in Making Money Online

The reason why I am successful with making money online using Google AdSense is because I choose the right keywords to target. But I’ll admit, it’s a balancing act. And there isn’t an exact science or forumla for figuring this stuff out.

Many times, even I make mistakes and end up choosing the wrong keywords. The goal is to find keywords that pay a lot of money per click and that have the highest level of search queries (traffic) with lowest amount of competition. Sounds easy, right? Well, like I said… It’s a little tricky and it takes time to become proficient.

The second part after finding the right keywords crossing your fingers and hoping that the domain name is available that has your exact keywords or keyword phrase packed inside it. If it doesn’t, then your chances of ranking in Google for those keywords are reduced.

The third part is writing really good content based on the chosen keywords you have decided to target and designing a very nice looking site that is friendly for people while also friendly for getting AdSense clicks. All this can be summarized into five elements needed in order to be successful with earning money using Google AdSense.

Five Elements Required For Successful AdSense Earnings

  • Keywords With a High Cost Per Click
  • Keywords With a High Month Search Count
  • Keywords With a Low Level of Competition
  • Available Domain Name With Keyword Match
  • Resources For Writing Excellent Content
  • A Balanced and Friendly Site Design

You might think that I use expensive software and tools for finding targetable keywords. I really don’t! The software and tools I use are free and are available for anyone to use. As strange as it may seem, Google actually provides all of these tools. There are four Google tools I use for hunting down keywords to use with building AdSense sites. These tools are as follows:

Four Google Tools For Keyword Research

The Keyword Tool gives me an idea of the keyword level of competition, number of monthly searches, and a list of alternative keyword ideas. The Traffic Estimator gives me an idea on how much money advertisers are paying per click and the estimated number of daily clicks they receive. Insights For Search gives me a graphical comparison of the amount of interest between sets of different keywords.

With Insights, I will plug in a keyword known to be HOT such as sex, cancer, money, war, Iraq, etc. as the control and compare the level of interest against the potential keywords I want to target. Insights For Search gives me another means for estimating traffic volume. Additionally, is has a section that brings up eventful highlights and news pertaining to keywords which immediately give me a source for researching the topic in preparation for writing quality content and creating quality outbound links to external sources.

Lastly, I use the SERP to research my competition. I will investigate each site ranked on the front page. I want know know who I am competing with. If I discover that the competition are major sites (i.e. CNN.com, Microsoft.com, ESPN.com, etc.) I may decide to walk away from the campaign and start over.

And That’s How It’s Done…

Choosing the right keywords to target for earning money with Google AdSense doesn’t involve purchasing expensive software and tools. It doesn’t involve joining various paid membership programs. It really just involves equipping yourself with the right FREE tools available from Google, and learning how to use them effectively.

Easy To Follow Advice Tips and Tricks With Keyword Targeting and Search Engine Marketing

Written by Garry Conn on February 18th, 2011 Posted in Internet Marketing

I have been spending way too much time fixing computers instead of using one myself. I sure do miss blogging. But, in the time I have spent away doing other things, it’s giving me more time to think about search engine marketing and keyword targeting. I think largely the problem at hand is that many people think keyword targeting involves rocket science. It really doesn’t. And the sooner you believe that the better you will get at it. There is huge bag of keywords just waiting to get pulled. Keywords with more traffic than your server can handle. The question is can you find them, and if so can you profit from them. I talk about all this in a fresh new article I published on SeoHosting.com. Here’s the LINK. I invite you to check it out and share your thoughts.

What’s Going On… Show Me The Money!

Written by Garry Conn on January 19th, 2011 Posted in Making Money Online

Just a quick post letting everyone know what has been going on with me over the last couple of months. A few weeks ago, my family and I packed up and moved again. We landed a pretty sweet house. I have a full size home office. I’m very happy about that. Aside from moving, I have been keeping busy with my local computer repair business. It’s been a blast and I am having a lot of fun watching it grow. It’s also not bad that it helps pay a few of the bills each month.

I haven’t had much time for blogging lately. Or rather… I haven’t had much time to write further about Internet marketing and making money online. What’s at hand is the fact that I have many interests in life. And writing about profiting on the Internet isn’t the only thing I enjoy writing about. But, because I put barriers on this site, I’ve been limited with writing about other topics that I enjoy.

Because of that, a couple months ago I migrated the blog and all of the posts to a new URL. The new location, as you might have already discovered, is http://money.garryconn.com/

Finally, after having some free time, I was able to launch my new blog directly on the root directory. If you haven’t seen it yet, I welcome you to check it out at http://www.garryconn.com/

On my new blog, you’ll find me rambling on about computers, linux, programming, software, and pretty much anything technology based that has captured my attention.

Lastly, please don’t have any worries about the Make Money Online blog. I still have FULL intention to keep it going and, in fact, keeping it updated. The volume will be much lower, but when I do post to it, you’ll most likely find that the quality of things are better.

For now, that’s all I have. So now you know what’s going on, and you also know that I will still be showing you the money!
