How to find out what a specific keyword pays for Adsense/Youtube?

4 replies
I have Google'd and can't seem to find anything but lists of top keywords.

What if I have a specific keyword?

How do I find out what it pays with Adsense and how to figure out what you could generate on YouTube say per 1,000 views?
#adsense or youtube #find #keyword #pays #specific

    There's no such thing as what you are looking for. A keyword's Adsense click value is not a static thing and can change at every moment. You can look in the Display Planner for an average historical value and then multiply that by 68% for content ads and get a very very general idea. There are many factors that can make this figure very different than what you personally would get. For video, the revenue share is not even disclosed by google so you don't even have a percentage to multiply by. Anyone who gives you a number for what you can make for a particular keyword being clicked, would be either misinformed or just making it up.

      I don't remember exactly where it is but some site out there has a list of the top 1 million keywords. I'm sure with a little googling you can find it. Otherwise you can get a general sense with the google keyword tool.

      Again as the previous poster mentioned you can't do any better than get a general sense if it's a good paying keyword but when I'm writing content for a specific niche I'll just do a ctr-f on that list to see what I might be looking at and specific terms I can write into my copy.

      No, that doesn't show what he asked for at all. This is why I said that anyone who tells him he can find that information is either misinformed or making it up. You don't understand what the keyword planner is.

      Like I said, the closest he can get to a guess is to use the display planner and choose video placements. And like I also said, google doesn't disclose the revenue share for video so he doesn't even have a % to multiply the historical data by, not to mention all the other factors that make that historical data rather useless to determine what he would make for views on his videos..
