Which other industry gives you this much Freedom?

This is something I’ve been doing for a long time now & it’s probably by far the easiest & best way to find profitable niches on the web.

It’s so simple that you’ll kick yourself for not doing it first. Really, you will.

Sign into Adwords then click on Tools.

Next click on the Keyword Tool.Then click on the Site Related Keywords Tab.Now you need to start finding niches from sites with dynamic content. I’ve created a list of pretty Dynamic sites over the past year. These are sites ranging from things like Holidays, News, Sports, Financial, Religion, Technology, Health Insurance.

For this example I’m using Yahoo, so fire in www.yahoo.com as the site. Make sure you group the keywords by common terms & search by cost as shown below.

Adwords to find Niches
Now you should get a list like this:
Adwords to find Niches

Now I have a list of around 100 keywords that range from about $8 up to a whopping $60 Average CPC. Ouch.

Bearing in mind that a lot of the keywords on the page are very competitive you can still find some real gems if you delve a little deeper.

I now start picking the more obscure terms & fire them into Google to see what the competition is like, for example Middletown Auto Insurance, this has a competition of around 3,000 terms or so when you target the title in quotes.

The competition heats up a bit when you remove the quotes however you can still see there’s not too many people who use the actual full term “Middletown Auto Insurance.”

So you have a term that’s paying around $28 a click on the Search Network & a half decent chance to rank for it if you’re willing to put the legwork in. Obviously there are millions of other niches out there that have much much less competition. I was able to find 20 in about an hour.

Whenever I find a nice list I then fire everything into Keyword Elite to see if the keyword gets traffic. Sometimes you can find keywords with NO COMPETITION that get over 1000 searches per month.

Now I simply create a blogger blog with the keywords in the domain i.e. middletownautoinsurance.blogspot.com then I’ll make a dedicated page that’s highly relevant & gives good information about Middletown Auto Insurance.

I’ll use Bookmarking Demon & some other programs to generate enough backlinks to get the domain indexed. Then I’ll figure out how I want to monetise it.

I’ve literally set up anywhere close to 500 blogger domains within the last year using this system & it works. Finding the niches with traffic & little competition are the best way to dominate that market.

Don’t forget that you can win an SEO Audit of your site by Reviewing Earners Blog on your Blog, I’ve had about 5 sent in so far so keep em coming! :)

Yeah, I have been using this method for a while now. Other sites that are worthwhile to use are Wikipedia, Google news and NYTimes. Most news site (with varied news, so not smth like Digg) are good resources. Other portals than Yahoo should work fine too.

Do you monetize the Blogger Blogs with adsense?

Good advice, but I’m not sure about this:

Now you need to start finding niches from sites with dynamic content.

What is meant by “dynamic content”?

I’ve created a list of pretty Dynamic sites over the past year.

Does “dynamic” here mean the same as the first example?

Those average CPCs are more than misleading. To get a much closer estimate on how much you can expect, is to check how much you need to “hit” 4-6 or 7-10 as typically many advertisers will opt out of the content network. In this example, Google estimates that paying $4.36 will get us listed on position 7-10, so you can expect around $2 a click. Still, by no means a bad keyword. Just don’t expect anything upwards of $5 ;)

Thanks for the tip Stuart.
I’ll have to see how middletownautoinsurance.blogspot.com works out ;)

Stuart 12. Feb 2007, 9:41 am

Hahaha, good luck ;)

I don’t quite understand Stuart.
You say that you’ve set-up almost 500 Blogger sites, but that would mean you couldn’t possibly be posting to that many regularly and a blog by definition is a chronological record of posts.

What I mean is, how could you fill up the page w content with just one post ?

rob 16. Jul 2007, 10:12 am

OK I went to the Middletown site and I see what you did.

Question: How do you handle email w all those sites?

Thanks

P.S. Earner$ Blog is good.
