Pay Per Click Advertising - The Power of Keywords

by Brian Basch

The root of a quality pay per click campaign is the right keyword list. It’s important to search for and research high quality keywords. Make a long list, and make sure you check out every possible avenue for success.

You may be puzzled about how you can do this. Let us use a keyword like “loan” for our example. This is a well searched keyword. Because it is also very saturated it is hard to get a good placement with it. Extending your keyword research will earn you some better placements.

Think of a different way that your word might be interpreted. For instance, someone searching for the word “loan” might be looking for information on how to get a loan, what do do if their loan is in trouble, how to buy a house, or how to get a good loan with bad credit. Condense these concepts down into keywords that are related to your base keyword. For instance: “bad credit loan”, “house loan”, “getting loan” and “refinancing loan” are all possible options.

All these keywords are small variations on your original keyword. You can research them and find more niche keywords. In fact there are so many different loans to be had. Put these keywords together with your initial list and look at all the different keywords you have made from your original keyword.

You can also start a campaign made up of lenders names. Added to this you can put .com. a country extension or .net at the end of your keyword. It does not matter that there are no domains with that particular keyword; searchers will still use these domain style keywords and you will get some extra visitors.

Do not use saturated keywords that have a lot of competition bidding on them. Find specialized ones that are derived from the primary keyword. Also make different key phrases from one phrase; “loan bad credit” can be taken from “bad credit loan.” Doing this will attract more searchers.

Campaigns and keywords can be created around the different search keywords that your potential buyers will be looking for. It is wise to try all sorts of different keywords and phrases as searchers can use a wide variety of keywords and phrases.

Initially you can use; misspelled words, domain names, products, serial numbers and plurals. Sometimes searchers forget to put spaces in between words and when you use these types of key phrases you can find more traffic.

Use company names and domain names, as well as variations on them. Think about using superlatives like “best” or “cheapest”, and remember that there may be spelling variations in different countries.

You should also use keywords from your web logs. These are good as the stats will show which keywords visitors are using to find your site.

Your pay per click campaign’s success will be dependent on how good your list of keywords is. For this reason you will want to look into all your choices before using your keywords.
