As I came across more than one thread in forums, asking about ‘how to find high paying Adsense keywords’, I decided to create an informative post on the subject.

Before starting my post, let me tell you that you can find lots of high paying keyword lists around the internet if you search a bit. Lists of keywords with a CPC more than $50. Note that, targeting those keywords might not be a good plan to follow.

First of all, you should know that going after high paying keywords is not the best strategy most of the times, especially if you are a beginner to making money with Adsense. Those niches with high paying keywords are constantly being targeted by a great number of internet marketers, rendering the competition much tougher. Monetizing such a niche would require great effort on your side if you are not comfortable on what you are doing. Even sometimes, you may not see any return for some of the niches.

My suggestion in this case is to find your own high paying keywords for your Adsense sites. Using Google’s keyword tool, you can find high paying Adsense keywords easily. Below I will explain how I do this.

• Go to Google’s Keyword Tool

Think about a niche that you want to target or just use some seed keywords like “software”. Make a search within the keyword tool using the term “software”. And sort the results according to the “Estimated Avg. CPC” values. Check the most paying 10 or so keywords and see which ones have higher search volumes.

Choose the one with a high number of searches and that you want to target. In this case, I chose “marketing software”. Run another search using the term “marketing software”. Again, sort the result by Avg. CPC.

Did you notice the dramatic increase in the Avg. CPCs? Also, a decrease in the search volumes is observed. This is because as you go deeper, the more the search term is related to the product that is being advertised and the higher chance of monetizing the keyword for the advertiser. Same for you, as an Adsense publisher. You can now choose a keyword with high CPC value or continue digging to find better keywords. Don’t forget to check the competition before targeting any niches. Checking competition is a must after deciding about the niche. I am not going to explain how to check the competition here, maybe on another post.

You can apply this same concept to other niches as well. Now you know how to find high paying Adsense keywords easily, you can start putting up some Adsense niche sites. Good luck on that.

I have been promoting CPA offers for about one and a half month now. I am happy that I have seen some success so far. Currently I am a member of Maxbounty and I promote offers related to video games. Check my last post about My First CPA Money.

Recently I started to work on a new website which will be mostly like a freebie and offers site and I am currently working on getting more traffic to it. I decided to try other networks as having more offers will give me more flexibility and in case if something goes wrong with one network then I can continue with the other.

That’s why I applied to Adscend Media CPA network. I don’t know much about that network yet, though they approved me in one day without a phone call. I strongly advise it to the ones who are uncomfortable with the phone calls.

They require a W8 form submission before you can get paid. There are about 600 campaigns in 14 categories in this network. Payments are made via Paypal, check, direct deposit in US, and wire transfer internationally. A good feature of the network is that they have content gateway and file gateway offers. This can be really powerful if you have some websites related to content like videos, software and other files.

I think Adscend Media is a good place to start for the newbies. If you consider joining, here is my referral link to Adscend Media.

Now I am on my way to check what type of offers they have and try them on one of my websites. I’ll update you about how it goes.

I know that whoever enters the internet marketing realm, they are flooded with information overload. They keep searching for a better method, for an easier way. They find really valuable information that will work for them if they just followed it; however, they keep looking for and barely take action.

I was once like that. I was reading all the forums related to internet marketing, downloading all the ebooks with catchy titles, in short I was trying to make money without doing what was necessary to make money. That is to take consistent action until it works.

Now, I continue to search and learn about new methods and strategies, though the time I devote to taking action is much more than the time I spend learning. So, how was I able to change my mindset like this?

At one time, while I was reading an ebook, I realized that I knew what it was talking about. The only thing I lacked was the required action the book mentioned. Then, I decided to leave the ebook open and do what it suggested rather than just reading it. I followed every step the report talked about and finally I was at a point where I was taking more action than reading.

From that time, whenever I find something that grabs my attention, such as an ebook or a forum thread, I leave it open and do not read it until I finish taking action in my plan for that day. Because I know that no matter how incredible the ebook or thread is, it will tell me one thing only: Take action, whatever it is.

I got my lesson, and I am on my way to taking more and more action.
