when looking for a keyword, what is your ideal daily count?

derh · 11-02-2010, 05:13 PM

Do you guys go for keywords that have least than 100 a day or less (or more)?

I have one website now that only gets around 10 a day. I have a feeling this number is too small.

I have seen a number of people on here suggest 3000-5000 per month on average MINIMUM for your main EXACT keyword. Just what I tend to keep in mind. Everyone has a different opinion on this for sure! Search for some other threads asking this too...there are quite a few!

I tend to go for over 50 searches a day and no more than 50 -60,000 in competition.

I tend to look at 1,000+ searches a month and no more than 10,000 pages of competition.

I also look at the top 10 websites and take a look at their backlinks and SEO. You can find this with the free version of Traffic Travis.

I like to use keywords that get 1,000 or more searches a month. So this would be a little more than 30 a day. These will typically have low competition naturally. These keywords are great for building micro-niche sites using affiliate marketing and adsense to montetize it. These small sites might not make a large income but you can build multiple sites.

Since the competition is low you can rank high on google easier and pull lots of organic traffic. If you can pull 50 visitors a day you can make a decent per site income ($100?). Then just rinse and repeat to your desired income.

Its not the keyword I look at... Its the competition FOR that keyword that matters more.

So use Google keyword tool and narrow down a few keywords...
search them in google....

If you see fortune 500 companies or major authority sites taking up the first page beyond... Move onto the next keyword..you'll have no shot.

Then when you find a few you can actually compete in... go back to G keyword tool and see how many visits per month .... choose the highest one and get to work.

30-40 daily searches, so that's around 1000 per month. Competition i like to keep under 15000 if possible.
