Legitimate High Paying Keyword Price List for Adsense

Does one actually exist?

I've been on an Adsense blitz here for Christmas and I'm doing pretty well, but I have this feeling I could do a lot better if I could target some of the higher paying keywords in my niches.

I've seen websites advertise the fact that they have lists of the highest paying adsense keywords but I am skeptical, especially for the amount of money they want for them.

If such a list of keywords exists, where can you get it? Do Yetis keep a secret copy high up in the Himalayan mountains? If so, do they take visa?

Even if you had a perfect list very few people actualy know what to do with it. High paying keywords are hard to rank. You won't make much if you get a lot of off topic traffic with high paying keywords. I wrote [webmasterworld.com] an article about this a while back.

Nope,

High keywords get low fast. As soon as they are known everyone jumps on board.

I think I may be being misunderstood here.

Let's say I have a website about widgets. I cover the topics red widgets, white widgets and blue widgets in great detail. The money I am making from adsense for the red, white, blue and is good...but maybe it makes sense to create some more content on my widget site for green, yellow and black widgets.

Before I take the time to create more content about the green, yellow and black widgets I would like to know if they pay well on adsense. If they don't then it's not worth my time creating more content on this widget site...it's time for a new different widget site about another topic.

Dear flexsez, you must search google.com for your keywords, and if you find more advertisements then it may be a good keyword or phrase to build good content.

I have seen we don't get much money if we consider good keywords... because google algorithm is so strong that it considers many parameters to show actually high paying ads at your site...

SO, just create lots of good content related to your phrases if you have more competitors in google.com search.

I am sure this will help.

Enjoy...

The keyword lists I have purchased have paid for themselves many, many times over. But you have to make the effort to weave this information into your site in a meaningful way.

Keywords change so fast, it's not worth playing that game. You are doing the right thing in expanding your existing site rather than simply making ut a MFA site hoping it will make you rich! Sign up as an adwords advertiser and see what you would have to pay for clicks on your intended keywords.

Keywords lists you pay for are as useful as buying "Good earning sites" from Ebay - most of them will get banned if / when adsense finds out about their content.

There are no legitimate or illegitimate keyword lists. The thing is how smart you are about using these lists.
I've know ample examples when people created websites with supposedly expensive keywords, like "personal loans", "credit card", "mortgage", "refinancing", etc. and they got paid pennies for clicks.
People who do this are amateurs, this does not work with AdSense but still works with YPN to an extent.
However, you can use high-paying keywords to increase, sometimes even double your earnings. And it's really quite simple.
First, you already have to have a website that gives you decent AdSense revenue. It's critical, because if you don't know your niche, no list will save you.
Then you need to analyze and see what keywords trigger ads - it's really quite simple as well. Then, you need to find out if there are "more expensive" keywords in the same category, that you can use more extensively to raise your profits.
Here is a real world example - a photography related site (software, cameras, lenses equipment), which is known to be a decent niche, pays well and is not abused by MFA idiots, much like home load and credit card sites are.
When you write an article, you can use "digital camera" as a generic term, "Nikon" as a brand name, or a specific model, like "Olympus Evolt E300" - believe me, it makes a huge difference as far as what ads are being displayed and how much you get paid.
Sometimes adding a specific model will give a huge jump, although it's the case only with popular and expensive camera models.
Another thing about expensive keywords - you don't want to find one superexpensive keyword and use only it (to make sure you get ads for it). It's smarter to find 3 well-paying keywords or phrases, all interrelated and highly relevant to what you write about, and use them repeatedly. This way you'll get targeted, relevant ads displayed that pay well too.
But once again, thinking that "keyword list" is the solution is dumb. Your number one concern should always be traffic. Keywords is more of optimization than the foundation.

A website targeting hundreds of "high-paying" keywords can be very profitable, but only if you are also targeting lots of "low-paying" keywords.

EuropeForVisitors often points out that AdSense helps monetize pages and articles on his site that don't earn much from affiliate commissions, but I think he would probably tell you those pages would still be very important to his site even if he didn't have AdSense on them.

Why? Because those pages flesh out the site and help make it a truly useful resource for people who are interested in visiting Europe. In other words, thousands of low-paying pages can lend credibility to hundreds of very high paying pages.

I believe this is why my experience has shown that large, comprehensive resource sites do better than small sites that were built to display just a handful of high dollar ads.
