Author: The Myth About High Paying Adsense Keywords
One of the most common questions that everyone asks in regards to Google AdSense is what are the highest paying keywords I can build content around? You’ll find threads on this subject in various forums all the time.
Answers to this question will inevitably mention keywords such as mesothelioma DUI lawyers mortgage etc. Then you’ll find those high paying keyword lists floating around that include ones that have bids in the 60 range.
It sounds real good. Target some of those keywords get your site up and rake in the cash. Unfortunately this is a myth and doesn’t work. What happens is reality is that people do this and when they get any clicks at all they find they are paying anywhere from less than a dollar up to 3.00 or so. That’s a far cry from those 60 bids. So what’s happening? Why aren’t you getting 2030 for that click?
Search Network vs. Content Network
The first issue that many AdSense publishers overlook in using these high paying keyword lists is that the bids are almost always based on the search network. Those same advertisers are in most cases anyway bidding at much lower numbers on the content network. Sometimes in the .50 range.
That’s why a keyword showing bids of 20 may only pay you .25.50 a click.
Keyword Targeted Site Content
In order to attract the highest paying ads you’ll want to focus on creating original keyword targeted content. Be sure to also include related keywords and keep the content focused.
Never use plr content that is not rewritten to be original. Of course no scrapped content or MFA sites.
The Real CPC Numbers
While no one other than Google knows the exact formula through several years of testing and building sites in all types of niche markets I’ve come to find that on average you can expect to get around 20 of the average cost that advertisers are paying in the search network.
I know that doesn’t sound as sexy as hearing you’ll make 25 a click but that is why these high paying AdSense keywords are just a myth.
