keyword ideas for a newbie

Hi Reaper -

The subject of keywords is extremely complicated but let me try and summarize -

- Your main site itself (usually index.htm) should be optimized for your primary keyword

- You will then add pages to the site which link back to the main index page. Each of these additional pages should be optimized for a related keyword. These are often called "long tail keywords"

- The articles you submit to sites like eza can either link back to your primary index.htm file or they can link back to one of your "article pages" which in turn links back to your main page.

FOr instance - say your primary keyword is something like: saltwater aquariums - you would optimize your main index page for that keyword phrase, and then the article pages would be things like: maintaining a saltwater aquarium, setting up a saltwater aquarium, etc

- Each of those additional phrases my not have a ton of search volume in and of themselves, however, if you continue to add pages, submit articles to eza with links back to them - after time google will see that you are truly building a site containing content and they will begin to send more and more traffic to you.

- Do not try and do this all at once - try and do 1 article per day for the first 21 days at least for each site.

Hope this helps!

Hi...

Once you have chosen your niche, one of the first things you should do is proper keyword research. Now, you may find that based off of the resulting keywordphrases, you may not want to target this niche at all.

Proper keyword phrases selection can make or break your marketing efforts, right from the beginning. So make sure to choose your keywords wisely.

Much Success,

Hi,

I believe keywords is also related to my domain name & product name?

eg. I have a product on PPC Marketing Millions with PPC Marketing Millions - Strategies That Cost You Less & Make You More

I believe I am doing the right way?

I got keywords like PPC Marketing Millions, pay per click marketing, pay per click advertising, pay per click search, pay per click management, pay per click search engine, pay per click, PPC, google adwords

or shld I go for longer keyword so call "buyers keywords"?

There's a good blog called Flippachic for newbie IMs. She often has excel sheets with low competition keywords that may be useful
