Finding Relevant Keywords
So now you know how to pick the sites you want to promote. Now you'll want to pick out the best keywords to use in your PPC Ads. Picking the right keywords is a very important step of the process. These are the keywords that people will be using to search for your links to the products in Clickbank. What you're going to try to do is to think of keywords that prospective buyers would use in a search engine when they are looking for that kind of product.Here's an example. Suppose you use this site, www.LegitOnlineJobs.com. Firstly, you earn 75% per sale (that's $33.90 after Clickbank fees). It converts visitors to customers better than most sites on Clickbank. This means that you'll earn more with this site than many other site on Clickbank.
So now onto the keyword selection. One of the best methods to use is to simply read the website you want to promote. As you read it, write down keywords or short phrases that you think people would use when searching for that site. If you were doing that to the www.LegitOnlineJobs.com site then you could come up with some keywords like these:
Online Jobs
Paid Surveys
Ways to Make Money
Work At Home Jobs
Work From Home
Make Money Typing
Make Money At Home
Just having a few isn't enough, however. You'll want to have a whole set of relevant keywords. You see, the more you have, the more chances you have of getting a prospective buyer. So once you have the the keywords you came up with after reading the site, you want to use some of the tools below to expand on your list. The following tools make adding to your list a very simple process.
IMPORTANT TIP: Use common word variations. If you have a word like Drive, then also use Drove, Driven, Driving, etc. You'll also want to use the common misspells like allot, a lot, alot, etc.
Wordtracker Keyword ToolWord tracker's free version of their keyword tool. Definitely the best one available, showing you the estimated daily search volume across various ppc engines for any keyword you type in. This is a must if you are using the pay per click method.
Google AdWords Keyword Tool
Type in one or more keywords in this tool and Google will give you all the possible combinations of that keyword. This will help you find many more keywords pertaining to the ones you put in.
These next ones are NOT free like the two above. But you definitely get what you pay for! I don't recommend these until AFTER you are making profits. Then they will just make you even more money:
