How To Make Online Money

Some folks who are trying to make online money with Adsense are smart enough to know that certain keywords pay more per click than others.  Obviously, if you can write your content to be about topics where advertisers are willing to pay more, the clicks you receive can generate you a higher income.

In the past, people have sold lists of high-paying Adsense keywords, or built tools to figure out the best ones.

Now, Google itself has created the tool.

Google’s Search-based Keyword Tool provides all the information you need.

Go to that site, and ignore the idea of putting in a website URL to check.  Just click the link at the bottom that says ‘see top keywords across all categories’.

Then browse the categories on the left side to your niche and the results are displayed to the right.  You will see the phrase, expected number of searches per month, and suggested bid value.  Keep in mind that the bid value is for Google’s Search Results Adwords, which cost more than Content-Network bids (which is what you’d get paid with Adsense on your site).

But still…even though you might not make that dollar value per click, you can get an idea of what the high-paying phrases are.

You can even export the results into Excel (well…a .csv file which can be opened by Excel).  In Excel, you can use the AutoFilter option to eliminate phrases with low searches, and sort so you can see the highest-paying phrases at the top.

I know I plan on using this new Google tool.  I’m sure once you start to use it, you’ll find other uses, too.  (HINT:  spy on authority sites in your niche to find relevant keyword phrases)
