Super Launch Your Blog

Ok, so I have started my blog "Structured Settlements". I have added an article from "ezinearticles.com" which let's you reprint articles for free as long as you include a link back to their site and the author information.

I could have researched and written an article myself but I will wait til later to do that.

For now I just want to get the search engines to index my new blog, which by publishing it here on BlogEvolve.com an already established site, it won't take long. In 1 or 2 days Google will know about it.

How or why did I choose to blog about "structured settlements" you may be asking?

Well it does sound like kind of a boring topic but I am not doing this blog for fun. I chose this topic for three very important reasons:

1. There is a lot of people searching for information about this topic.

2. There isn't too many websites on the Internet targeting these keywords. Lower competition means it will be easier to rank higher in the Search Engines.

3. Very good payout to click ratio for Adsense. Just getting 100 visitors a day I estimate I will earn around $5-$10 a day or $150-$300 a month.

Now you need to know how I researched these keywords.

First I used the Overture Keyword Suggestion Tool

This will give you an idea of how many searches there are in the given month for any keyword phrase. My phrase Structured Settlement returns over 250,000 for the month of October. This means that many people searched for this phrase using the Overture Search Engine, which is owned by Yahoo. This doesn't count how many people searched for it on Google but I can guarantee it would be almost double.

If I find a phrase that I think may be profitable I then do a search for it on Google to see how many pages Google has listed. Searching for Structured Settlement on Google returns about 112,000 at the time of this writing.

Then to make sure it is profitable I go to the Keyword Bid Tool

This will show me how much advertisers are paying for each click. It shows about $7.25 a click which is very good. That means that the people that advertise in Google probably pay even more per click. That means Adsense will pay very good per click. I estimate around a dollar or so per click is how much I will make.

Well there you have it. The secrets out. Actually many of you may already know about these techniques. Anyone that is serious about making money with Adsense needs to be able to research their keywords before they start.

If you are just blogging for fun so be it, but if you are interested in making a living at home and then blogging for fun like I do you need to learn these basic techniques!

Question about the numbers:

What are good number ranges to look for?

You say that assuming 100 visitors a day, the $7.25 approximate ad price will bring $5-10 a day. Do you mind sharing the math for that?

And what's the rule of thumb of how many visitors you can reasonably expect based on # of searches (which I realize is highly subjective, but surely there's a guesstimate)?

Thank you very much, Sir!

Yes you can. Click on the

Yes you can.

Click on the link "Ezine Publisher" at the top right of the article and it will give you publishing options.

The reason authors allow you to republish their article is to get a link from your web site or blog back to their site. This increases their traffic and gives them better rank in the search engines.

I like to create a blog for each topic and stick with that topic through out that blog.

Of course you will need to have a new email address for each blog you create here. This keeps people from spamming the site with hundreds of useless blogs.

Admin...

But what I'm trying to understand is that, if you choose let's say for example an article from that article site can you re-write it here with your own words?

Yes and No

As long as it's an entirely different article when you get done. You can't just substitute a few words here and there that would be plagiarism. But you can deliver the same message and bring up the same key points in your own article.

Or you can just copy the exact article giving the author his bio and link at the bottom like it says in the TOS

I'm new to this

Here's a question...does a blogger only get paid if a reader clicks on the actual advertisement on the blogger's page? or if there is a link to the site within the blog, do they get paid for that click too??

An Adsense Ad Click

is money to you. A link in your blog post is just a link unles you have contracted with the busines or service to pay you per click. But the link out activates the "spiders" and those links out are good for blog placement.

Is this what you wanted to know....and Admin am I explaining it correctly?

Great Idea

I am wondering about the site you posted. Do you have to sign up as a member or what exactly is involved with using their articles?

To Blazin:

You only need to read their terms of service. You don't need to sign up or register. The articles are free to use so long as you make sure to make the authors link active as well as the link back to the article site.

Just be sure to read the TOS before you use an article.
