Using Keywords to Title Your Blog Posts

This is another topic that is so vital that it can’t be said enough. You absolutely MUST pay attention to the keywords you are focusing your content around if you want to maximize your search traffic and improve your blog’s profitability. Here are a few reasons why you should do keyword research:

• It helps you keep your blog content tightly focused
• It helps you determine which post titles will attract the most search traffic
• It helps you gauge competition
• It helps you attract highly qualified traffic
• It allows you to see how much search traffic there is for a niche
• It prevents you from wasting time on topics that aren’t searched or profitable

All of which lead to more relevant content, which is the cornerstone of highly profitable contextual advertising. Profitability isn’t everything, but we all have to eat!

As an example, say you were given a choice between a truckload of peaches or a truckload of pears to sell at a farmer’s market. What would you choose? Probably whichever one you liked the best, but
the question you would be asking is “Which fruit sells the best?” If you knew that, on average, 100 peaches sold every day at the market, but 1000 pears sold every day, you would choose pears in a
heartbeat. That’s what keyword research tells you: exactly what people are looking for every time they search; but even better, it allows you to find out how much competition there is for a keyword.

Keyword research is not an optional activity for professional bloggers. It is a necessity. This is one of the things that will set you apart from all of those people who are killing themselves trying to churn out a few Adsense dollars each day. You’ve simply got to do it.

Craft a Compelling Title with Keywords

For each of your anchor posts, you should be doing keyword research. This doesn’t mean that you should limit your writing to only those topics that generate search traffic, but it does mean that you should describe your posts in such a way that they attract maximum traffic.

The process is just as you would expect. Extract the keywords from your post, and plug them into your keyword software. Your software will present you with a long list of related keywords that you might not have even thought of. Analyze those words with the software and look for the number of searches, the number of competing results, and the KEI, which is a measurement of the effectiveness of a keyword. A good strategy is to keyword the title and first paragraph of your story with those words with the highest KEI’s.

It’s a wonderfully simple way to grab extra search traffic, and many of your competitors aren’t doing it, so get a leg up on them!

The Top 10 Reasons Why . . . (You’ll love this!)

Let’s agree on something: We’re marketers. We have to be. No marketing = no traffic. Most of us are on the Internet to make money. Sure, we enjoy what we do, but we enjoy it more when we get paid to do it!

And the more traffic we have, the more money we make. Yes, I’m stating the obvious, and here’s why:

My Holy Grail for natural, ongoing, DEFENSIBLE traffic for all of my sites and blogs is Keyword Elite. Anyone can use it. You can use it and watch your traffic grow. And grow. And grow. Imagine checking your site stats each month and seeing that 45 degree upward angle.

And with that traffic comes . . . profit. So here’s my top 10 reasons for using Keyword Elite:

10. You’ll get your sites and blogs ranked on the first page or two of the major search engines for the keywords YOU choose.

9. You’ll get a LOT more traffic because of your high rankings.

8. That increase in traffic will mean an increase in revenues, whatever your source.

7. An increase in sales means more, and probably a lot more, money in your pocket.

6. It’s easy to use, even if you’re techno-phobic.

5. This is the exact same program that’s causing the ridiculous amounts of traffic you see in the movies on the web site.

4. If you get as much traffic as the guy in the movie is getting, and you sell a $1 product to just 1% of the people who come to your site, you’ll make $46,800 per year.

3. If you sell a $10 product to that same 1% of people, you’ll make $468,000 per year.

2. You’ll never lack for money again, because now you’ll know how to pull it off of the Internet by the bucketful at will.

And the Number One reason to get Keyword Elite is:

1. When you’re automatically generating that kind of traffic . . .

. . .and making that kind of money . . .

. . .you can do whatever you want . . .

. . .including telling your boss that you make more money than him and you do it in your P.J.’s!

Okay, so I’m a linear thinker. But these tools make a big difference, and I love the fact that there are no monthly fees — just a single, one-time payment. I subscribe to SIX (yes, six) traffic services, and they all carry a monthly fee. Keyword Elite is the ONE tool I would never be without. Keywords are THAT important.

Get it and see for yourself the difference it makes.

Work the Keyword Plan

Are you sick and tired of being kicked around the Internet by your competition and the big SEO firms? Are you fed up with typing your keywords into Google, only to see a hundred of your competitors
ranked higher than you?

And have you resigned yourself to never knowing how to optimize your site to get it onto the very FIRST page of the search engine rankings?

Well . . . do something about it!

Yes, even if you don’t know the first thing about keywords and SEO, it no longer matters, because you have access to the perfect program for getting your site to the top of the rankings, and it’s called Keyword Elite.

And it’s so simple, my nephew could do it. I’d say my son, but he’s only three, so actually, HE can’t do it!

Several keyword group members grabbed their copy when I first wrote about Keyword Elite — good for you! You’re fed up with lousy traffic and low profits, and you’re going to do something about it. That’s an excellent step in the right direction. Experiment with the projects — you’ll be amazed at what you can uncover. Exactly what are your biggest competitors’ hottest keywords and ads? How are their pages optimized?

By getting your site onto the first page of the search engine rankings, you can quickly and easily explode your traffic and make a ton of money by doubling, tripling, or even quadrupling your sales . . .with little or no extra work. It’s all a numbers game after all.

I did get a few questions that I’d like to address, so here they are:

Q. “I am the least technical person in the world. I already feel like I’m in over my head. Can I do this?”

A. Yes! First, forget everything you’ve ever heard about SEO that made you afraid of it. Second, know that you will not have to do anything technical to use Keyword Elite. Third, know that hundreds of other people, also afraid of anything technical, have successfully used Keyword Elite to get their sites ranked on the first page of the search engine rankings for their key search terms.

Bottom line: even if you have a complete techno-phobia, you CAN DO THIS.

Still not sure? There is an eight week money back guarantee. So you have nothing to lose and everything to gain.

Q. “Do you have proof that this works?”

A. Of course. Click this link and watch the first three movies. You’ll see sites go from obscurity to front page rankings. You’ll also see the tremendous boost in traffic they get. Then look at the profit results and imagine that they’re piling up in your account!

Q. “I’m still skeptical that Keyword Elite can get my site ranking high on the search engines, and I’m skeptical that it will impact my bottom line greatly.”

A. Just watch the videos and prepare to be blown away! Even if you have NO interest in getting your site ranked high in the search engines, go watch the movie just for entertainment. I promise, it will rock your world.

Keywords: Are you being DECEIVED?

I received an interesting question from a reader the other day. Or rather, two questions.

“Does search engine optimization really work to drive traffic? And if so, how do I, someone who’s not a techie person by any means, do it?”

So, how would YOU answer this guy?

This is what I wrote back to him:

———————————

Dear XXXXXXX,

Have you ever gone to Google (or any search engine) and typed in a keyphrase to find something your were researching? Then did you go to any of the pages that came up on that first or second page of
results? Statistically, I can answer that for you — yes — so you already see that a properly optimized site listed on the first or second page of the search results WILL bring you traffic.

And you don’t think those sites at the top of the listings got there by chance or accident, do you? SEO and keyword analysis DO WORK. In fact, in the long run, they begin to matter more and more.

But a lot of marketers get so confused by how to do it, that they don’t even try. Which is a shame. Imagine what an influx of thousands of new visitors to your site every week or even every day could do for your bottom line!

So how does someone, even the most non-techie in the world optimize a site to get it to the front of the results pages? Now, before you start thinking you can’t do this . . .

. . .that’s it’s for techno geeks only . . .

. . .that you need to be super computer smart or even know what you’re doing . . .

. . .relax!

Like any tool, you must learn how to use it, but Keyword Elite is so user-friendly, even an 11-year old kid can use it. And their video support is second to none. At last count, they had 93 videos showing how to perform any and every Keyword Elite task step-by-step. Dirt simple!

Check out the examples and check out the endless opportunities.

If you promote anything online, this is for you. If you run a blog or build auto-pilot or VRE sites, this software is a must have. It is one of the simple and commonly overlooked things that separates the successes from the failures.

Forget EVERYTHING you’ve ever heard about keywords and search engine optimization that scared you away . . . picture YOUR site in the number one position . . . and then GRAB this software.

P.S. Just because you THINK something is true, that doesn’t MAKE it true. Just because you THINK you can’t do Search Engine Optimization yourself, and get your site into the number one spot on Google, that doesn’t mean you can’t.

It just means you’ve been deceived into thinking you can’t. Because I’m here to tell you that YOU can. And when you do, you’ll see your traffic, rankings, and income rise exponentially. As in really big!

Niches: The Keys to the Vault

Several days ago we talked a little bit about Micro Niche Finder, the cool tool that let’s you find the highest converting traffic for the least amount of money. But I forgot to mention the movies.

Guess I should have, since they answer many of the questions I’ve received.

Q. How does Micro Niche Finder locate the best keyword phrases for me?

A. When you type in a search term, Micro Niche Finder is going to find all of the related terms and display those, along with the number of times they’re searched for, and the number of sites that appear in the results pages for those terms.

Look for the video titled “Profit Stream #1, Create Simple Little One Page Articles to Promote Affiliate Products that Pay You Commissions.”

Q. How does Micro Niche Finder create AdSense pages for me?

A. Amazingly, with very little work on your part! Look for the video titled “Profit Stream #2, Create AdSense Content Pages that Pay You Residual Ad Revenue.”

You’ll be blown away by what you see. Imagine if you had a few hundred of these pages up, paying you month after month. THAT’S exactly what we’re trying to accomplish in this group. I’m about halfway there, with still a lot of work left to go.

Bottom line, regardless of how you’re making money online, with Micro Niche Finder you’ll have access to the exact information you need to bring highly targeted traffic to your site(s) at the lowest possible cost.

Plus, with Micro Niche Finder you can add numerous additional income streams to your money-making arsenal.

You already know why finding niches is important — you’re looking for topics that have high search traffic with low competition, allowing you to swoop in an dominate the search rankings. When all is said and done, it really boils down to . . . money.

Popular keyword phrases with little competition are sooooo easy to make money with!

Check out the videos that show Micro Niche Finder in action and watch what it can do for you, your traffic, your conversion rates, and your wallet.

Here are a few of the specifics to wrap your head around:

• Discover numerous super-profitable niche markets that marketers are overlooking.
• Find the most profitable affiliate programs for your niche. (I love this one — excellent complement to Hyper VRE)
• Easily find related keywords that have a higher profit potential than your initial keyword phrase.
• Create articles to promote affiliate programs for more income.
• Create Adsense content pages, eBay feeder pages, and Squidoo lenses for more income.
• Create private label rights packages for niches, and sell the rights to other marketers. This, by the way, is a great model that you can capitalize on in almost any market. Find a trend, and rather than attacking that trend, provide support or a framework for the people who are attacking that trend. It works!

If you’re mining for gold, you can settle for a pick, shovel, and a pan. Or you can get a machine that breaks up the rock for you, sorts it, and hands you the gold. They both work. One will give you specks of gold. The other will find you entire veins of gold.

Micro Niche Finder is that gold mining machine.

All right, that was cheesy. But you see my point. These are the kids of things that separate those of us who can earn a living with auto-pilot income, and those who only wish that they could.

Every Profitable Site Does This - Do You?

Before moving on again, I wanted to address niches one more time, simply because they and keyword analysis should form the core of your targeting strategy.

That means that in order to be successful:

• You must choose the right niche
• You must know how much search traffic and competition there is for a niche
• You must PRECISELY target the keywords to use to optimize your sites

Put it this way: if you choose the right niche, and then follow my traffic plan, you WILL profit. If you choose the wrong niche, you could spend hundreds of hours in promotion and never make more than
a few dollars.

You MUST choose the right niche. You MUST choose the right keywords.

In the keyword membership group, we talk about keyword topics in depth, and show you many different ways you can use them in your long-term blogs and your auto-pilot sites — or with no sites at all!

Divert and Convert

Every single site on the Internet that makes money does two things well . . .

They divert and they convert.

First, they divert traffic from one location to another. The first location could be almost anywhere, the second location is to the property making the money.

Second, they convert that diverted traffic into profit. Maybe it’s by selling products, selling clicks, or creating leads.

Doesn’t matter. The point is, step two isn’t that hard. Step one can be a freaking killer!

Suppose you want to make money generating leads for credit card companies. Discover, for example, pays $40 for every new card member you send their way. Sounds good, until you do a Google search for “credit card” and realize there are 56 MILLION sites in the results.

Ugghhh.

Kind of hard to compete, wouldn’t you say?

But Discover gives a 5% cashback bonus on gas purchases. And when you do a search for “credit card gas rewards” you get 56 results. Much better. Now you can not only compete, you can make money.

No matter what kind of marketing you do, it stands to reason that if you target overlooked, under-the-radar keyword phrases, you’ll divert more traffic and convert more of that traffic into profits.

Finding the Right Niches

So, how do you FIND these overlooked, under-the-radar keyword phrases?

Keyword analysis, yes. And by using a niche finder. Niche finders help you uncover untapped niche markets and completely dominate them in Google. You can find new keywords related to your base keyword that are more profitable than the keywords you’re using now.

You can rank higher in the search engines, thus bringing in more traffic. The traffic you get will be more TARGETED, thus converting at a higher rate. And if you use Google Adwords, you will pay LESS for more highly targeted and better converting traffic!

I used a niche finder to scout my latest auto-pilot site, and I’m the ONLY AdWords advertiser for it! I’m getting three-cent clicks on keywords that are converting like mad. Thank you Micro Niche Finder!

Essential Blogger Task: Research your Keywords

One of the first things that I tell anyone who is blogging — regardless of whether they are brand new or an experienced veteran — is that they MUST pay attention to the keywords they are focusing their content around. And if they aren’t focusing their content around a carefully selected group of keywords, they had better start doing it NOW.

For the same reasons that choosing an effective niche is so profitable, so is keyword selection. In fact, using keyword research to help select your niche is the best strategy for starting a new blog. Please do it. You will thank me later!

Ignore keywords at your peril. Weeks and months of hard work can be quietly undermined by poor keyword selection. Get it done right!

I use keyword research for these reasons:

• It enables me to focus my blog’s content tightly on a niche
• It enables me to gaze into a crystal ball and predict what story titles will attract the most new readers
• It enables me to find out how much competition I have in a niche
• It helps me bring in highly qualified traffic
• It allows me to see how much search traffic there is for a niche
• It saves me tons of time I would otherwise waste on research or deadbeat keywords

All of which lead to more relevant content, which is the cornerstone of highly profitable contextual advertising. Profitability isn’t everything, but we all have to eat!

Keywords are so important that I address keyword topics exclusively in another member group. To learn more about keyword research or to join this group, visit the keyword research group page.
