What's The Lowest Amount Of Traffic You Will Chase?

terryd · 07-08-2009, 06:18 AM

Just doing some keyword research and was wondering what the lowest amount of traffic other warriors would chase and by that I mean build a site around?

500,1000, 2000, 3000+ visitors a month?

What is your cut off point?

at least 2k searches per month per keyword for me

1000 would be a bare minimum for me...although, 2000+ is what I aim for as a minimum...

depends on the market. a friend of mine sells 200K per month off 3000 visitors per month
Off the 200K in sales he makes 40K

For me it depends. I have a few large content sites that promote various affiliate products and a few of my own products. For those sites I'll put up numerous pages that target even very low-hanging fruit, 10-20 searches a month. If I have 10 pages like that on a site, that's 100-200 more visitors a month. And if I do that across several websites, it can add up quickly.

1,000 is my cutoff.....The cool thing is when you add up your monthly hits for a keyword phrase and then realize that you are dominating it over the competition!

How do you know if you're receiving more hits than the competition?

It depends. If I were an edge fund manager and could convert 1 in every 20 people(5%), 20 searches a month would be more than enough to sustain my business

On the other hand, if you're selling $7 information products I wouldn't settle for anything less than 100k.

For an expensive product ($500 plus) I'd chase traffic as small as a few hundred a month. Cheaper product? then I want much more traffic to make it worthwhile.
