    Do you not think it would be pretty hard to monetize that kind of thing though?

    I can't think of anything other than an ebook. I can see it now, 'How to win the lottery'.

    I mean someone would have to be a 'sucker' to buy that.

      Stock market trading, commodities trading, real estates are giant lotteries.

        Uhh.. this is pretty much 100% untrue.

        How do you think a company like Goldman Sachs makes billions of dollars every year in securities trading? Because to them it's not a gamble, it's based on math and skill.

        As for real estate, calling it a gamble is even more ridiculous. There are plenty of ways to determine if a property value will go up or down over time. There are also a lot of people who predicted the 2008 collapse.

          you forgot sports betting, many people are making real money there, using math and skill

          many more are losing real money there, just like real estsate

      I believe lottery syndicate sites are quite popular so that would be one way to monetise this keyword.

      A general lottery content site could also work because the UK National Lottery does have an affiliate program.

      P.S. There's 33,100 exact match searches for "how to win the lottery" so there must be quite a lot of suckers out there .

    @ryanmilligan - If i were a gambling man I would monetize this by offering affililate links to online lotteries in other countries than the UK with better chances etc....

    Gambling not my think though

    Don't know much about them but there are at least a couple (recurring commission) lottery products on Clickbank with decent gravity lol - so yeah, go for it if you can rank for long tails.

    Brits have been winning the Euromillions a lot lately so we obviously love that sort of thing over here.
