Quick Question

This is how I set up my adsense websites, and have done very well with this strategy...I've now got 7 sites ranked on the first page for the main keyword, it only took about 3 weeks for my last animation site to get to 2nd spot, so should work for you.

You need to do the keyword research first, find 10 keywords with low competition (I go for under 100,000 phrase search competition, but the higher the number the longer it will take to rank high), make sure the keywords are also highly searched, minimum 2000 per month global or local depending on your sites intended audience (this depends on your preference)...

You can then rank for those keywords easily, with a lot less backlinking and promotion.

You can go for higher numbers no problem but it will just take longer to rise up the ranks and need more quality backlinking.

Remember look for the lowest competition with the highest searches that are relevant to your niche and are keywords that attract buyers...

I do all this research on Market Samurai as do most, it is the best keyword research program and is easy to use. they give a months free trial I think, or they used to anyway so you can do this free at first, think it's a one payment of about $100 after that.

Once you have selected your 10 keywords, pick the best one of those from the research and try to get an exact domain match at somewhere like namecheap and I use Justhost to host it as you can have unlimited add on domain.. if you can't get .com go for .net or .org but if you can't get any of those add hyphens or an extra word. Make sure the main keyword is in the title though at the very least. eg, main keyword: "get out of debt now", domain h**p://getoutofdebtnow.org.

Next, write or have someone write 10 * 500 ish word articles with images. Use the title of each article as the keyword from your keyword research.. You will then use that keyword/title in wordpress for each articles title.
Make sure your each of your articles also uses the keyword/title several times but don't go ott!! Must use keyword in the first and last sentence and maybe have it in bold at the end.

Your first main home page must be your best keyword title with the relevant articleI use wordpress to make websites, google seems to like this style, pick your themes catagories etc and copy and paste each of your 10 articles with images with the relevant keyword/title... Go to plug ins and make sure you get a site map generator and generate a site map, get a stats counter plugin to monitor, and also the all in one seo pack plugin and configure it to each page/post. The P2P converter plugin can also be useful for converting page to posts and vica versa.

Finally, submit to google, yahoo and bing manually.. they prefer that I find, just type "submit my website to google" and you'll find the right place to submit. I don't use those bulk search engine submission tools, but you can.

Finally start backlinking starting with your main keyword (or get someone else to do this boring time consuming task!!!!) You'll only need a 20-100 quality backlinks to start seeing results.

I'm no guru on IM but this works for me, is easy to set up and gets me to the top page quickly to get impressions, clicks, and cash on adsense!!

This may not be what you needed for your site, or answer your question but you sounded a bit lost at the early stages so thought it would help you, if not someone else!!!!it's a solid adsense plan I use & works...

I'm now pissed and rambling (got carried away) Hope this helps!!!

Just curious, what is LSI?

I have a list of excellent keywords (15) and 10 good keywords. I blogged alot of related articles over time and when my site was ready to sell my book, I submitted about 12 articles. I come up on the first pages of many of my main keywords. I get optins dailey but the weird thing is I sold about a book a week for the first 8 weeks and then nothing, but I continue to get optins and good page rankings.

I'm really new so I'm sorry to ask for help without much to offer back. But if anyone knows enough about CTR and stuff, It would help me figure out the results I got from a couple ads I tried just to see what the numbers were. For example the Facebook ad got me .30% on the ctr. I tried a yahoo one and an adsense one also. But I don't know how to analyse them to see how to improve them. (No books sold, but optins keep coming in.) I have about 95 currently (37 other ones left). I just started this in mid Dec and I do have a squeeze page.

So if anyone wants to chat or share idea let me know, thanks alot.
